The format for the debate will be identical to the first presidential debate and will focus on foreign policy.

This will be full of hyperbole and platitudes. I'm willing to wager there won't be a single succinct answer in the whole thing. It is a pretty good upgrade in moderator though. I'm not sure what exactly they are going to disagree on anyway.

Not sure the veracity of these reports but someone seems to have money problems

That's strange, I thought i'd read that Obama and the Dems raised something like $170 million in September, much more then what the Republicans raised that month.

Bump..
The 3rd and final debate is set for 9:00-10:30 p.m. Eastern Time, tonight, lets check it out!

Part 3 starts in about 10 minutes, I've got to get up early tomorrow to go to work, so no beer for me. :-\

Come on Mitt, tear him a new asshole!

There's something about Obama that makes what to slap the shit out of him.

Romney destroys BO when the debate turns to the economy and jobs..

Obama is the kind of guy that tips a dollar and hugs the waitress, but tonight Romney looks rattled and scattered.

I don't want Obama, again, and I don't hear anything of substance and throw away talking points from Mitt.

Miles would love this...

"I'm really enamored with Israel"

"Been good friends with them for longer than you bud"

The backhand of the night, albeit in condescending asshole fashion goes to the guy with the much smaller Flag pendant....'well Governor we also have less bayonets but this isn't a game of Battleship we use to count ships and resources'.

I say just let em fight it out already. Old school tribe leader style :-X;D

ohhh mjor bounce back for Romney smacking him down about Israel :o Get Richard steele in here

Obama's debate strategy: just criticize Romney, and offer no solutions of your own.

Hopefully one of Shaffer's questions will regard what happened in Benghazi..

Actually as far as "debating" is going, I think they're both doing a good job, I just happen to like Romney better personally, and trust him to get the country back on track.

Obama wiping the floor with Romney on everything foreign policy. He basically is just saying he agrees with everything the Obama adminstration is doing with confidence. Outside of that he looks lost. He keeps trying to talk about the economy because that is all he is strong on.

We'll see what the pundits and polls say in the following days, but I think this is a fairly clear win for Obama on Foreign policy.

Also, Mitt looked and sounded like he ate a bad oyster all night. lol There was a rumor he was sick earlier today. Bad time for it, if so.

Your right, both holding own but Obama seemed more on point, sharper and Mitt danced around a bit. Trust is at the front and a must of any man, yeh. But I think alot of people go for the feel good or what they dislike on the otherside. Thats as it should be as Obama has the record, or lack there of, that he has to run on. Romney has the oppurtunity to be new...turn the page or 'change' but at the end of the day I dont think I'll ever meet a man running for political office that I'll devote my trust in.

I tuned in for portions. Maybe 2/3 of the whole thing. Romney didn't really score any points with me but the President seemed much more concentrated on attacking Romney then articulating his plan or explaining his record. To me Ad hominem is sure sign of defeat.

Well, personally there's few people that i'd put total trust in, not just politicians. Let me put it another way, as for "foreign policy" i'd much rather have Romney at the helm in a crisis. And most importantly, I really believe that Romney is best man for fixing the economy, creating jobs and reducing the deficit, something I zero faith in BO doing. The thought of 4 more years of Obama is fucking depressing.

That's been a major part of BO and the Dems' campaign & debate strategy, ad hominem attacks, and calling Romney and Ryan liars et al. To me BO acts like a condescending, presumptive, asshole, where's his plan for recovery been, and where is it for the next 4 years? Ans: BO doesn't have one. :-X

Eh, I think Romney held his own on Foreign policy, but that's not what I really give a fuck about, it's 6, half a dozen of the other.
My main concern is the economy, jobs, balancing the budget, and lowering the deficit, the businessman Romney stomps a mudhole in BO's ass when it comes to these vitally important issues.

I get it Mars, you really want Romney to win and that is cool and all. And I would agree that the economy is very important in this election, for your country, and in the eyes of voters. But also, the Presidency is a multi-faceted job. Foreign affairs a big part of that not just for the next 4 years, but for laying the groundwork for your countries entire future both at home and within the world community.

I have no idea what this debate will mean on the election. I just know Romney did not look strong at all tonight. He lost the debate. A win or even close tie would have served him better to show him strong on more than just the issue of economy. He didn't.

Romney's tax plan is such absurd pandering. I have to think, or hope, that's all it is. He can't be stupid enough to think it would actually work, he just has to hope people are dumb enough to buy it, and then hopefully if he gets elected he'll change tack and become a bit more realistic.

I have to thank Romney for 'Tumult'. I had no idea this was even a real word but he killed with it 3 times in the first 4 minutes :cwm15:

The Syria policy was all over the map. 'We should be playing leadership role' in Syria but totally rules out military involvement to bring on new "Government". We've seen this movie before...

I thought Obama did a great job last night........if his goal was to look like a condescending prick. Mitt Romney should have hammered him on Libya but I suppose his best line he had was about how attacking him is not an agenda for the next 4 years.

I suppose people will see my view as biased and I suppose it is after living 4 years under the current President I suppose I have become a little biased.

Obama won that one again too. Romney just doesn't have any credible ideas. It's hilarious watching him fumble with default mode being '4 years and look where we are'. I mean the guy is a bit stupid. Was Rome build in a day ya'll? Get with reality, Brother Grimm.

Rome wasn't built in a day but I suspect they were seeing progress 4 years into the project miles

Yes, I want Romney to win, and equally as important, I want this pretentious piece of shit, BO out of the white house.
I see no reason not to believe that Romney won't do as good of a job or better then BO with regards to Foreign Affairs and the World Community.
The domestic economy, jobs, balancing the budget, and lowering the deficit is still the U.S. #1. priority, getting us strong at home, will help make us strong around the world. In a nutshell, Romney has a proven workable plan, BO does not.

P.S. who's the better "debater" means fuck all, I want real results, where it matters.

....people were dumb enough to vote for Obama on just his promises of "Hope" & "Change"....kind of broad and vague terms weren't they???

Obama seemed suspiciously knowledgeable about foreign affairs for somebody who claims he was born in America.

Election 2012 Likely Voters Trial Heat: Obama vs. Romney

51%.....Mitt is just doing horrible isn't he?

News this morning:

In a surprise late election tactic that left both pundits and campaigns scratching their heads, Mitt Romney delivered an across the board endorsement of President Obama in Boca Raton, Florida last night.

When asked this morning what he was thinking, he didn't shy away or deflect, "Look, I've just grown fond of the guy. What can I say. You think he'd like to borrow one of my lake side homes for the holidays?"

...yet despite that Obama still looked and sounded like an asshole

Debates deliver favorability edge to Romney; now above 50% in rating - Washington Times

Oh no Kirkland....oh no

I know you find it hard to accept that I'm not wanting Obama to win the election but that's the case. It doesn't matter to me which one gets in. If Obama gets in I get to see Democrats outrages when he agrees to massive cuts to social security. If Romney gets in I get to laugh when the GOP discover after a four year gap that, hey, Keynesian economics might not be suchj a bad idea after all and who cares about the deficit anyway? I also get to see Republicans either outrages or ecstatic when they attempt to privatise social security and turn Medicare into a voucher programme. It's all good for me.

So all that about "we're going to Hell either slowly or really fast" was just you bullshitting and not picking a side then? OK, thanks for sorting that out for us.

Rasmussen 50% Romney; 46% Obama
Gallup 50% Romney; 47% Obama
ABC News 49% Romney; 48% Obama
Yahoo 47% Romney; 46% Obama

Things not looking good for Mr. Hope & Change
