Maybe Jen Psaki, his traveling press secretary, was preparing us when she said on Air Force One Sunday that Obama “has had less time to prepare than we anticipated. That’s just a fact. It’s difficult to schedule significant blocks of time when you’re the president.”

Well, there are the regular golf outings. And, well the hip hop parties in the White House. Oh, Hollywood's calling?

Romney demonstrated a lot more depth than Obama. It appears that he was in up to his elbows in healthcare while he was MA governor. He knew details. And he understands finance. Obama spoke in vague generalities, like he hasn’t been involved in healthcare or the economy. He came off as a lightweight.

Ryan versus Biden should be even more of a mismatch.

It seems like the Obama people had a focus group session and came up with how they would spin all this after the debate. I repeatedly heard "Romney doubled-down", "Romney backed away from...", etc. from the Dem spokes-people.

They obviously decided to attack Romney, saying he "doubled-down" when he repeated what he has said before, and he "backed away" from things he previously said when it sounded like he changed something.

Attack, attack, attack. Confuse, muddle, obfuscate. Typical Dem strategy. The only confused one on the stage was Obama!

What's to prepare? He is the POTUS isn't he? Isn't he doing the job already? Or at least supposed to be doing the job?

Less time to prepare? WTF?

OBAMA HAS HAD ALMOST FOUR YEARS TO PREPARE!!

Simon you are a pure unadulterated simpleton. How do I know, your very own words...

It is possible Obama was overconfident, but I doubt it. He is not a foolish man. So I think he was just overtired or over-distracted or over-something. But he sure wasn’t over-energetic.
