(CNN) – Sixty-seven percent of registered voters who watched the debate said GOP nominee Mitt Romney won the debate, while 25% said President Barack Obama came out as the winner, according to a CNN/ORC International Poll released late Wednesday night.
For the survey, 430 adult Americans were interviewed by telephone after the end of the debate. The poll does not and cannot reflect the views of all Americans. It only represents the views of people who watched the event.

Glad to see he's finally getting his comeuppance.
Cheers!
The more the moderator interferes the worse it gets for Obama. He’s the President. If he cannot stand up to an ex-MA Gov. and a capitalist who can he stand up to?
Domestic policy is Obama’s strongest hand. It lets him feed the intolerant monster of populism and class warfare. He failed. He sounded as tired and useless as his ideas.
Will it get better for Barak when the debates focus on foreign policy?
Wait until Ryan goes after Biden? How will they sell Biden? Statesman? Philosopher? Lunch pail Joe?
You’ve got an empty chair searching for a teleprompter and his vacuous clown to work with.
Most leftist freaks I’m seeing are mad at the moderator or continuing to spew their drivel about Romney.
Hussein is still god to them.
I should have bought stock in Prozac for I suspect the Dems are downing it by the handfulls right now.
Spin that, Democrats!
Intrade only has the Fraud up by 2:1 now.
5:1 a week ago.
FU Hussein, and your mindless worshippers, too!
To me, it looked like Mitt was actually having fun! His performance appeared effortless. He said a lot of things I clapped for but the one that stands out in my mind is “Mr President, as President you are entitled to your own house and your own plane, but you are not entitled to your own facts.”
ZING!!!!!!
Before I could say a word, my wife who is not as politically astute as I, mentioned that it was obvious pandering. I said yes...it was to show what a caring heartfelt person he is to squishy heart-on-a-sleeve types. Thankfully, Romney ignored it.
Not even Stephanopolous could put a positive spin on this one. Perhaps Obama is playing rope a dope, playing possum until the final debate so that he can spring an “October surprise” on Ronney.
I don't believe in the "rope-a-dope" theory. Obama was clearly tired, frustrated, and couldn't articulate his points without a teleprompter being present. To me and as reported by others, Bambi just isn't into preparing for a true opponent. It's been all over the Net about how he was not into preparation.
The fraud is a narcissistic little man who has no experience and has been in way over his head since he was a Senator, and even further back while being groomed. If it weren't for his ONE WORLD backers and the biased MSM, he would never have gotten past junior senator.
I often wish I still had a graphics client to repeatedly show Obama walking off AF1 with his book, titled, "After America". Just what a socialist/marxist would read coming from his background.
That was as informative as the video of Clinton laughing while walking away from Ron Brown's funeral. Once Clinton noticed the camera his face drop into somber mode and tried to fake wiping a tear from his eye, while his aid kept laughing and jiving.
They are both con-men. While Clinton understood the political and nation environment and curtailed much of his socialist tendencies, Obama has flaunted his and has did many end runs around Congress. I'm not surprised when Clinton supports Obambi. They are two of kind - socialists.
In the next two debates and campaign ads, I hope Romney spells out the difference between free-enterprise/capitalism versus the failure of socialism (he has plenty of examples from Europe). If explained in the simplest terms, maybe some undecideds will start to understand.
A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship.
This is something that Romney should put in ads regarding socialism versus free-enterprise. Like Newt does, he should quote history and why socialism always fails, as we are witnessing in Europe today. And strongly make the point that with Fedgov out of the way, free-enterprise will bring us back from our impending economic abyss.
“I have a bad feeling that there won’t be any more debates.
Bam will just refuse.”
A practical impossibility. It’s political suicide.
