Obama believes he'd got the better of Romney as he walked off stage to the dismay of his aides, according to a Democrat close to the campaign The President failed to prepare properly, opting instead to visit the Hoover Dam the day before the showdown Democrat claims he was so disdainful of Romney that he didn't think he needed to even engage with him Had one-liners on 47% prepared but chose not to use them

It must suck to be a super narcissist.
‘One liners’
Did “O” actually think that the President of the United States of America should engage a challenger to his office with ‘one liners’?
Is that all he could bring to the debate after four years in office?
“O” is a moron and WAY out of his element!
I did search before posting and nothing came up. It seems a few people hadn’t seen it and posted. No harm no foul.
