[Jean S]

Jim Lehrer moderating.

[American Constitutionalist]

Obama is sending out Subliminal messages of subliminal manipulation to women voters,,,, nothing else, nothing else Obama says makes any sense.

Subliminal messaging like :

1#. Education .... liberal women see it as, " Yeah, our children need more education.
2#. $ 5 Trillion tax cuts .... liberal women see it as " ohh poor children, bad bad Mitt Romney is going to cut our kids school lunches.
3#. Military needs to be cut .... Liberal women see it as " yeah, those men toys, those war mongering men don't need those toys that can destroy this world ".
4#. Well to do .... Liberal women see it as " those rich people need to be taxed even more ".
5#. American needs to be energy independent , Liberal women see it as " yeahhh yeahhh yeahhh, he's going to spend more on clean energy.

O seems lost, seems to be struggling to recall his lines, but R is running him over at this point.

R is showing some guts, demanding followups.

[cyn]

Romney holding his ground and insisting on correcting o’s misstatements, hitting and rehitting main points and jobs jobs jobs.

[kevao]

Give me four more years. Why? Because the economy was good under Bill Clinton in the 1990s. LMAO!

[The Wizard]

Romney is doing better than I expected...

[mabelkitty]

Obama did it.
Couldn't answer the question, so went right ‘to the American people’ with campaign rhetoric and looking right into the camera.

No, pond scum, this is not a campaign commercial or a stump speech - we are voters who are observers, not active participants at your chicken fund-raiser.

HA!! "I like Big Bird and I like you too...

Awesome Mitt, keep it up!

[BufordP]

Romney’s attacking Big Bird! He just lost the 2-10 years of age vote.

[Texas Eagle]

Ha haaaaaa!!! Romney wants to cut subsidies to Big Bird and Big Birdbrain, Jim Lehrer.

[SnuffaBolshevik]

Just spanked Lehrer on federal subsidies for PBS.

Sweet.

[kevao]

If it holds I think only the delusional would say Obama won.

By delusional, I assume you mean the entire MSM.

[txnuke]

"You said you would cut the deficit in half, [but] you doubled it"

Nice Romney quote!

[Froggie]

Romney is on his game...just wish he’d look directly into the camera to connect with the viewing people... not looking at Obama and Lehrer....but Obama is tentative and massively repetitive

[tumblindice]

`I’ll kill any programs that aren’t worth paying for with money borrowed from China. Including Obamacare.’

[Texas Eagle]

What an idjit. If you cut spending by 10 dollars, why would you need to raise taxes at all?

[Crimson Elephant]

Why does NO ONE point out revenue to the govt. went UP during the Bush years...and more than Clinton?

I thought Romney would point up revenue goes UP

[cyn]

I have to force myself to watch that lying jerk. All I can think is 4 dead in Libya. Jerk.

[Obama_Is_Sabotaging_America]

Romney WINS round 1 by punching Jim Lehrer to stay in the fight and shove the last 4 years down 0bama's throat. HE'S BRILLIANT! Awesome. Would've loved Romney to say that word OBAMACARE when talking about 0bama's 'tax friendly' years but perhaps he's afraid of blowback.

King 0bama looks rattled. Too much 'blow', maybe?
