    President Obama is so wrapped up in being Obama, he can’t see that not having a plan for the next for years is a problem when you’re running for re-election. During the final debate on foreign policy, Obama oozed with revisionist history of his record and added a theatrical element to his delivery, glaring at hole through Romney. Meant to be intimidating I’m sure, Romney responded to Obama’s stares and interruptions with calm and confidence, leaving Romney looking like the only adult in the room, as someone commented to me.

    The final presidential debate on foreign policy muddled the differences between Mr. Romney and Mr. Obama on foreign policy, but foreign policy is second or third on most voters’ list of priorities.

    Don't shoot the messenger. I thought Kerry did very, very well; and I thought Bush did poorly — much worse than he is capable of doing. Listen: If I were just a normal guy — not Joe Political Junkie — I would vote for Kerry. On the basis of that debate, I would. If I were just a normal, fairly conservative, war-supporting guy: I would vote for Kerry. On the basis of that debate.And I promise you that no one wants this president reelected more than I. I think that he may want it less.Let me phrase one more time...

    I signed up to the Dems' debate mailing list for some 'opposition research'. I signed up as "Abu Abbas" (Yasser Arafat's nom de guerre) for kicks. Here's the post-debate mailing they sent, hot off the presses: From: "Media Corps, Kerry-Edwards 2004" <info@johnkerry.com>   To: thoughtomator@yahoo.com Subject: John Kerry won the debate Date: 30 Sep 2004 20:46:25 PDT Dear Abu, John Kerry won tonight's debate on foreign policy, and we need you to make sure the media reports this right. Jump into the post-debate debate and keep the record straight. America saw John Kerry as our next President tonight. Bush had a...
