CSPAN ^ | 10/22/12 | GeorgiaDawg32

[GeorgiaDawg32]

Available to watch on any news channel. 9 p.m. Eastern time.

Yes it's early but NCIS is a rerun.

[Red Steel]

Obama shut up - he’s slamming your idiocy.

[Miss Didi]

And Mitt’s got the better tie—red for foreign policy. :)

[matt04]

Matt nails Obama on the “more flexibility” comment with Russia.

[madison10]

No money to them, they just create more Muslim Brotherhood run countries. Education works?

[diamond6]

Why didn’t Romney say anything about Libya?!!!

He didn’t answer the question!!!

[gop4lyf]

Great line about Putin!

[Nowhere Man]

I like how Mitt talked about the Bammy flexability quote. Way to go!

[mykroar]

Yeah - didn’t like that much either.

[bluerose]

STFU it’s Mitts time

[BRL]

More backbone, not more flexibility...very nice... he is getting Bambi flustered

[Kingosaurus]

It’s tactically smart. Obama can’t play him off as a neophyte who just wants to get us into more wars.

Make O look like the guy who just takes credit for killing people as if that fixes the entire problem.

Mitt needs to be a little wonkish on foreign policy to undercut O’s criticism of his inexperience.

[Windflier]

Bob Schiefer letting Mitt go after Barky. ‘Bout time Mitt shut Bozo down and corrected some of his lies.

[Individual Rights in NJ]

Mitt is too “off-tilt” he almost touches the right button, then lets Obama, helped by Sheiffer, of course, close it all out.

[Miss Didi]

What the heck is nation building at home. Is FR acting up again???

[Luircin]

These are easy things to knock out of the park and he is blubbering on about random points on the backwardness on Muslims’ civilization.

***

I think that the issue is that the media has turned the war in Iraq into a second Vietnam in the American public’s eyes. To talk about going into Iran like Iraq and do nation building is a losing proposition.

So I think what he’s trying to say is that the only way that the ME is going to come out of their backward ways is if they pull themselves out of their 11th century mindset. And that if they do want that, US foreign policy should be to assist.

I think that’s a hopelessly optimistic idea, but I think that’s what he’s trying to say.

[wk4bush2004]

“AWESOME MITT about Putin!!”

YEAHHHH!!! That was a SMACKDOWN when he called Obama out on that “off-the-mic” remark with Medvedev about “having more flexibility” after the election.

[mylife]

Mitt has Obama rattled now!!!

But Obobo is doubling down.

[gop4lyf]

Wondering when Romney gets to talk.

[God luvs America]

Dick Morris ‏@DickMorrisTweet

#debates excellent line and defuses the sense that he is a war monger. Women were concerned about that. Romney was positive in his opening and non political. presidential.

Dick Morris ‏@DickMorrisTweet

#debates Obama opens with his success in Afghanistan and killin bin Laden. What will he do forthe next hour and half

Dick Morris ‏@DickMorrisTweet

#debates good recitation of admin record in Libya. Good point about Libya thinking "americais our friend." foreign policy should be "all over the map" Romney moves away from war posture. Goes after women. Can he compete with Obama in kindness? Its dangerous fo rhim to try. Economic aid for the Arabs? Oil is their aid. I don't think Romney has differentiated himself enough from Obama. Obama tries to make Romney a cold warrior. Obama is attacking. Looks non presidential

Dick Morris ‏@DickMorrisTweet

#debates we need troops in Iraq to stop them from going to IRan. START treaty was bad. Romney right to oppose it. Obama looks political

[Darnright]

Pure gold!!!

TheBlaze ‏@theblaze

.@MittRomney says Russia continues to oppose us in the U.N., "I'm not going to wear rose-colored glasses when it comes to Russia."
