" I believe he is trying to set the stage for a knock-out punch to his opponent in the next debate. "

Next debate ?
Obama coming back strong ?

The next debate might be, will be about foreign policy and national security where Obama and this administration has been asleep at the wheel and abysmal at best...

I can't be the only person thinking this throughout the debate.

Lol, nope. Obama has become a sheltered creature spouting talking points that have less and less to do with reality in an echo chamber of adoration...and Romney hammered his talking points to dust with truth. Obama hated every second of it...his pain and fatigue were real...a beaten man exposed to the world as a fraud.

I believe he purposefully stumbled.

You have got to be kidding! A person with Obozo's ego and arrogance would never purposely come off as badly as he did on a national stage...never! The risk/reward ratio is simply too untenable. There are plenty of pre-debate articles about how Obozo was whining to his political advisers about having to prepare for the debate. It seems pretty obvious to most of last night's observers that he won the argument with his advisers and blew off the requisite prep time.

I think you’re right. This sure seems like a set-up

Occam’s Razor: Obama’s just not that good. Reality has finally overtaken the hype.

Well if Obama’s most ardent supporters are saying the election may be over, he may have taken it a little too far.

lol

If it was planned to look like an idiot... it was an AWFUL plan!

People in North Carolina, Wisconsin, New Hampshire, Iowa, Ohio, and Florida are voting RIGHT NOW!

And will be voting for the next TWO WEEKS until the next debate.

Obama may have seriously lost the election last night

Were I Bibi Netanyahu, I would choose the week of the foreign policy debate to bomb the hell out of Iran. That would put the cherry on top of Obamie’s blazing Middle East policy.

I doubt it. A lot fewer people watch the 2nd debate.

“I can’t be the only person thinking this throughout the debate. “

My thought is that none of the future left wing mods will “let” him look that bad again. They will tilt the questions so that Mitt will never get the chance to out obama him again.

The only thing they will do, and what they can do is SPIN SPIN SPIN SPIN this as some how a win for Obama, that's it.. and try to find some crack in Romney's armor.... but, the big momentum is in Romney's court.

Your right. Obama’s plan was to go into the debates with leads in all the polls...and then purposefully flush the lead down the crapper.

A really ingenious strategy. Not many politicians would have thought of those tactics.

JDSteel...it’s clear that you are really in tune with debate tactics and, I would respectfully disagree with your comment that you “can’t be the only person thinking this throughout the debate.”

You are. The cheese stands alone.

NO-I don’t think so.

There is too much at stake, too little time left in the campaign, “O” is too desperate and weak... etc.

He wouldn’t risk it EVEN IF he had the stones to try!

I am in a foul mood this morning, so please excuse me.

But, this is just about the lamest post I have seen today. If you hadn’t been around for so long, I would think you we’re a troll.

For the first time in his life, Obama faced a real opponent. He has been skating all his life, and believed all the adoration from all his enablers.

When confronted by a superior that challenged him, Obama lost it.

Obama finally couldn’t hide behind the skirts of the state-run media. And he was shown to be the empty suit that he really is.

Do you remember Milli Vanilli? They turned out to be a couple of guys just lip synching to recordings from professional musicians. And that’s what Obama really is: a mouthpiece for the people that created him.
