Why is it that there is never a Republican moderator? 4 out of 4 liberal moderators is absurd.

Mitt still won big in my opinion.

I agree that Romney won, if the measure is (as it should be) who gained more votes because of the debate. One can argue that as Krauthammer said, “on points” Obama may have won (not conceding that point, just noting it). But the ultimate goal of any debate is to sway voters to your side. I don’t think anyone who was undecided before last night will vote for Obama because of his performance, but many will vote for Romney because of his.

Obama laid out no new plans for a proposed 2nd term. He was wrong on Libya. His attacks on Romney largely fell flat. True, he was awake for this debate and thus his performance was greatly improved. Pretty low threshold for claiming a win, I’d say.
