Nobody’s that smart.
Mr. Obama stunk the place out last night.
He’ll be better next time, but that wouldn’t be difficult.
He’s got nothing to point to.
Or perhaps he really IS a bumbling idiot... just a thought.
No I really think he intended to just stand there and dole out talking points all night. I do agree however that the media is going to try and set up a “come-back kid” story for the next debate.
Nuts! He’s an idiot, in way over his head.
He’s debating foreign policy next, you know his policies of destroying our allies, showing weakness to our enemies and arming/fighting FOR terrorists to get them in power. What could go wrong for him? Get a grip.
I think the rope-a-dope was being played by Romney. Up till last night he had been running a lousy campaign and been virtually invisible. Not only did he perform very well, but after going weeks with seeing nary a yard sign nor a bumper sticker, overnight they have magically sprung-up like wildflowers. The result of deliberate timing I think.
This is part of some brilliantly well-executed marketing strategy. Four weeks of shock-and-awe lie ahead I think.
You are seriously over-thinking. Looking for some great political strategy to Obama looking like an idiot.
He had nothing to gain by blowing it when he had the entire press on his side all but saying he won the election. If he had done a decent job, the press would have wet themselves with joy.
Should Romney’s people be aware that when you strike at a wild boar, they will try to strike back harder and be smarter? Yes.
Should they act like this win was some fluke? Nope!
No, you and about 3 others currenly confined to a rubber room were as well. Please, enough of the conspiracy garbage. Obama has been exposed without his media suck-ups as the fiter. Its that plain to see.
Just does not compute.
So he is wearing Romney down by letting him punch him in the face over and over? Brilliant plan... for an idiot. This isn’t a Rocky movie.
He isn’t a great orator, he just practiced and had fire in his belly in 2008 and McCain didn’t even try in the debates.
He now has no one to blame but himself and he can’t defend what he has done.
He may have been off his game, but I doubt that even if he comes back with a good performance that Romney will be taken off guard.
maybe 0 took a dive because, despite the perks, he doesn’t want to be president next year when the economy crashes.
What you saw from Obama was simply a reaction to one of the best debate performances by any candidate in the last 50 years. Forget the idea that Barry had some grand plan he was simply an unwilling participant in what turned out to be an Obama roast witnessed by 60 some million people.
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.
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
