Obama could not possibly have thought he had won that debate. Romney was looking him in the eye and taking him down, and Obama could only smirk and look downward. This was not a man who thought he was winning anything.
Obama’s body language puts the lie to this theory.

I agree! See my post #38.
“Obama could only smirk and look downward.”
Maybe he was trying to diss Romney - to convey his disdain and contempt by deliberately smirking at his remarks while not bothering to look him in the eye. IOW, a subtler version of his infamous “one-fingered gesture”.
Yeah they’re just throwing things at the wall hoping something will stick.
There’s a thread about the media wishing the Obama campaign would shut up about the debate LOL!
I agree...
Unless he is insane ... and therein lies the rub...
Actually, I think Oblahblah thought that smirking and looking down was all he needed to do to “win”. It must of been a hell of a surprise to him when the MSM didn’t report on his ingenious debate strategy.
I am not sure about that. Obama is narcissistic. His mental illness is furthered along by the press touting his grandeur.
There is an interesting post over on HIllbuzz from someone who has had to deal with a narcissist. It is in reference to the theory that Obama concocted the disaster of a scheme over in Libya.
You can’t judge Obama by your standards. You have to use the standards of someone who is mentally ill.
I think it is possible that he believed he won. He can do no wrong. There is no Plan B because , of course, Plan A will work.
