President Obama had a terrible debate last week.
Supporters and opponents were shocked that he could be so off his game. They shouldn't have been. That they were indicates that they don't understand Obama's serious, likely insurmountable re-election problem.
Obama supporters and detractors expect the old Obama to show better form in the next debate.
But that is not going to happen! It cannot, because Obama's critical problem is not correctable.

Right on. A cornered animal is most dangerous. Romney has to have two more stellar performances in spite of whatever the rats throw at him.
WRONG... when you unlevel the playing field and the judges(moderators) are ringers your doomed in a debate..
The Townhall will be salted with “trained” Obama operatives probably 80% of the audience maybe 90%.. and the moderators will be trained as well.. Rehearsal going on currently as speak somewhere..
Saying Obama has nothing, is not true.. He has half-truths and lies galore.. maybe a few new ones.. Especially lies that would take 10 minutes to get close to explaining.. He will not have 10 minutes.. and will appears to be making “EXCUSES”..
Obama will obliterate him.. wipe the floor with him..
ALL lies and half-truths BUT you might notice they have worked quite well so far.. If you think they will not work... I give you Juan McLaim and the Hildebeast Clintoon..
Over confidence is the republicans party’s greatest disadvantage and the democrats greatest asset.. Republicans just cannot mentally absorb the depth of the democrats malfeance.. i.e. bi-partisanship is republican candy.. fed by democrats...
UNLESS Romney is on the deal the “DIVE” and then the connivance takes a more sinister turn.. For sure republicans cannot grasp that concept.. Like they still have not come to grips with George Bush’s second term..
The One Worlders seem to have Uncle Sam by the Balls..
and are squeezing strongly.. i.e. the balls; Myth and Barry..
Unless, obama has a teleprompter to guide him, Romney just needs to be himself and answer the questions.
obama is incapable of answering anything without a script.
“I still dont want to get cocky. Evildoers like the Marxist always might have tricks up their sleeves.”
Like rigged elections. Perhaps you noticed that Hugo Chavez was reelected, again. As Stalin said, all that matters is who counts the votes.
It’s so stupidly funny that Zero campaigned in ‘08 on “Hope and Change”, without really defining what hope and change really meant. Now, he wants Romney to specifically spell out, in detail, what his plans are, and no one questions Zero on this. Why wasn’t he specific in ‘08? Why isn’t he specific now? If he wasn’t specific in ‘08, why should Romney be so now?
Next time he will have his choom gang of the Media to help. It will not be Mitt vs. Berry—it will be Mitt vs. The Townhall, the reporters, the cameraman, and Obama—now high energy and prepped with all the lies he can hold. Mitt better watch out—But if Obama stumbles—he’s toast.
I see it this way: Obeyme can (and will) get crushed in all three debates, and his fellow travelers will vote for him anyway. Gotta keep the collectivist gravy train rollin', don't ya know.
Exactly! Accuse the enemy of what you are doing! Saul Alinsky tactics. Ubama has only hot air - no specifics and he accuses Romney of not providing specifics and those details Romney releases Ubama lies about them!
Yeah but on the bright side. If he loses the next two debates, Unemployment will be next to 0%.
LOL! I’m thinking that BO will cancel the third debate.
Long ago—when I was a teen—I loved to make games—Board Games mostly of World War Two. I had one friend who always won. So I made a game called “Hitler Bunker” It was 1945. I rigged it so I could win. I played the allies, my friend played Hitler with all the Nazi troops he had on January 1, 1945. I had USA, England, Russia, etc... We played for four hours—He won! Invaded England and killed Ike and Patton. This proved he was a better player. Maybe the rigged debates will show that even when the deck is stacked—Mitt Romney can will and win big. Its not the game so much as the players.
I want to know exactly how BO is going to help the economy by the middlle class out method. No one has asked him to explain this method, but we must have minute details of Romney’s plans.
I'm not even going to read this article but, I pray the headline will reach God's ear! For we know Obumbler will be seething with anger and the chairs will be stacked against Romney. Remember a cornered RAT will scratch his way out. DON'T COUNT the Ojoker's team out, they are up to something and it stinks to HIGH heaven!! The headlines that had to be tabled from the first debate are already on print waiting for the second debate to declare their Black Turd victorious. Oturd will get a bounce and probably regain the lead if he has a good debate...the sheeple are stupid and the poll numbers will be cooked ala unemployment numbers!!
GOD IS OUR SOURCE!!
I think you are overly pessimistic. The moderators will have their long knives out and the majority of the “folk” may be ringers, but Romney’s team trained him well.
The core of Bobo’s debate problems stem from his narcissism. He has NEVER had anyone talk to him like that Romney did. I predict that he will become so frustrated that he will have some kind of embarrassing melt-down.
Romney should point out that obama has constantly said “It’s Bush’s fault”. Yet he now claims “we’re moving in the right direction”. Is that to Bush’s credit?
I pray Romney does not relax, but to stay on top of his game. obamma can still be dangerous. As someone else has said, Romney has two opponents, obamma and the moderator (msm) in these debates.
Mitt did an excellent Job today of setting the agenda for VP and Pres debates on Foreign policy.
He’s going to talk about what he believes in and won’t be swayed by their
Assaults.
No chance for the followup you lied now. He can just stay on message and
Refer back to his speech.
If he can follow up on such criticisms on other issues with a similar response, then Obama's hypocrisy can be exposed. For instance, when "profits" come up, Obama tends to get defensive anyway, or, he condescends to "approve" of profits--as if, as President of the United States, he needs to pronounce such a favorable opinion of the very "engine" of commerce and prosperity!
"It is a socialist idea that making profits is a vice. I consider the real vice is making losses." - Winston Churchill
--which seems to be the penchant of the current President.
The Iraq withdrawal plan was all in place before he ever took office. He should get no credit for Iraq, not that that would stop him form gloating over it.
My concern for the foreign policy debate is the Iran conundrum. What do we do about Iran’s nuclear weapons program? The Iranians are going to build a bomb unless we stop them, and it appears that only an act of war will do it. So either we are willing to go to war with Iran, or we are willing to let them have their bombs. I don’t see a way to have our cake and eat it too.
So, are we willing to go to war over this issue or not? If Romney says yes, he gets branded a war-monger and I seriously doubt that the American public is willing go up the hill with him. If he says “let’s do really strong diplomacy” he looks weak and 0bama can say “that’s what I’m already doing.”
I really hope Romney and his advisers can figure out a way out of this box.

You thought up by yerself.. fine..
But it WILL NOT go that way.. (at all)...
The real world is not fair..
Its a debate not a campaign screed..
A debate with people specifically set up and “orchestrated” to hamstring you..
OH!... in case you don’t know.. THEY KNOW HOW to do that..
Then there also is the courageous Israeli Prime Minister who displayed the qualities of an authentic leader in forthright remarks to the President while seated beside him in the White House press conference.
The reactions were similar, however.
