aggressive? LOL

dude you aint sayin nothing.

there's an old james brown saying that goes "talking loud but aint sayin nothing"
?

One thing I was taught when I got on my first post-college job, they pulled me aside and told me, "Whatever you say(in front of the CEO's and upper mngmt), even if you know it's not correct, say it with conviction and confidence....because that's what they like to see"

Ok? You cherry picked one example where Obama came through. What about him cutting the deficit in half?

I'm sure if Romney is elected not everything will come to fruition...as most things dont in politics. But it wouldn't surprise me if something did.

sorry this is not a talking point thread. stop the nonsense replies.

i asked a question about us americans. why are we so STUPID and so easily fooled into believing someone won a debate when there wasnt one. the question wasnt "who has the better policies" or "who will follow thru with said policies"

you said mitt and obeezy are the same(obeezy 2008) i said thats not true. i proved how he explained something in detail and actually DID what he said he would do. now thats one thing as CHIEF he could pull off without repubs approval. other stuff has to go thru everyone else first. so some may get thru and others may not. but thats not the point of this thread. i proved my point. 2008 obeeze had an idea, he then explained how he would get to the end of his idea. no one liked his idea. but yet he explained it. it wasnt a popular idea. but yet he explained it. do you get my point. how on earth are americans dumb enough to let a candidate slide and not give us his own policy breakdown. THis is ridiculous. this is not a debate. its a joke. Romney and the repub party are insulting my intelligence and yours by putting that guy up there to debate when he isnt debating anything. if yall dont feel some type of way about the repubs trying to pull another sarah palin on you. i dont know what to tell yall. stop riding with the TEAM or being so anti obama. that you dont realize how insane it is for a person who may become prez. to not be able to tell his citizens how he will get from point A to point B. thats unheard of people. stop acting like its normal. it aint.

i'm not reading any of that. this is not a talking point thread. about checking facts. i specifically stated i dont care if romney LIES. but tell me SOMETHING. you cant be my prez and not tell me how you THINK you MIGHT get from point A to point B. keep that fact check stuff in another thread where we discuss who lied. romney didnt lie because he didnt say ANYTHING.

why reply in the thread if you cant answer the question? WHAT DEBATE?

there wasnt a debate. there was a debate scheduled. but thats not what you saw last night.

you saw one guy asking another guy to explain to the american people how he would get his policies/ideas from point A to point B.

other guy answer is ***criickets*** and "well it wont be your plan, cause your plan sucks."

wow if thats all you gotta do to win a prez debate. i need to head over to Men's warehouse to get myself a cheap suit, so i can hit up both of these politicians at the next one. i guarantee i will defeat obeezy and MITT in the next one. how much you wanna bet?

:smugdraper:
thank you mr. president.
yall hear that. "if you want to be president, you owe the american people the truth"

truth meaning the truth about your own ideas. tell them what YOU will do. dont lie and say you wont do a b and c to get to D. when you know good and well thats the only way to get to D. just say it. and live with it. hopefully on your side the people will like your idea.

see if you really believe the american people are sick of obeezy's bad policies. then state your good policies that will get us out of this mess we're in. but nawww why do that? when you know as obeezy just said int he clip, when you know full well the american people aint trying to buy what you're selling.

Gotta give you daps rapbeats, I think you layed out what is wrong with america and alotta posters and people in general who choose style over substance. Reading posters on here last night was a ridiculous diatribe of them choosing romney because he talked more like a arrogant idiot with no plan, but since he said it forcefully he won.

fukking disgusting, and the people on the left who you would think would have the prez's back jumped on him too. I will tell you if romney "lost" that debate last night, fox would be selling his stink as if they were fukking roses.

I didn't watch the debate, but the fundamental rule of debating is to thrash your opponent and his argument. I think everyone is saying Romney did well, not that he is a Rhodes scholar. From what you said, Obama let Romney skate, when Obama should have spent 90 minutes showing Romney doesn't have a clue.

Paul Ryan said 'It Would Take Me Too Long' to explain Mitt Romney's Tax Plan. :beli: Obama better call Romney to task, because Romney already called the voters idiots and he has no problem insulting their intelligence.

This is America and ever since debates started to be televised they have been about imagery over policy and to point to Obama's 2008 campaign as some example of wonkish policy discussions being given in minute detail is nonsense.
Also the way a challenger campaigns against an incumbent (especially one with the economic climate Obama is presiding over) is to harangue the President with his own record and to promise the voters to do better if elected. The challenger to a sitting President offers ideas but rarely if ever goes into the specifics because these types of elections are not about the new guy but about the last 4 years. That is why Obama has spent so much time trying to paint Romney as an elitist mosnter who wants to eat babies, murder the elderly and enslave the poor.
That is just the way US politics works and it won't be changing anytime soon just because The Chosen One shyt the bed in his first debate with the Mormon Robot.
Just accept that Obama took an L and move on...all this teeth gnashing and whining is getting ridiculous. You got two more debates where Obama can recover so just hope he understands that and comes correct next time.

300 murders a year
americans are not dumb

your just on the internet. this is the place everyone gets their heart and swear they would do something drastic and courageous but in real life they wont step to they boss when they mistreat them. so now they swear if it was them they would have went in on romney. then this is great talk for the news stations, to act like that little debate done changed everything. when i reality it didnt

i ask the same questions, who are they polling? the people behind obama, sitting back yawning at all this saying to themselves, just point me in the direction of them polls so i can vote for obeezy. this is not some street corner debate where the objective is to make the other guy look bad. this is politics where you are marketing a message to sway voters. obama already has blacks, mexicans, gays, and liberal whites in his back pocket. all he has to do is cling on to the few on the fence whites who decided to vote for him the first time cause they wanted to show they black friends they were not racist.

the beloved "47%" they were waiting for obama to hit mitt over the head with is a delicate subject cause you could lose some of those whites if you put that out there improperly and try to make mitt look like a racist. white people dont like when you point out they racism. the flip it and call it playing the "race card" obama people understand that. you place it in a ad, and let that circulate on the net but not in the debate because now mitt can flip it and make obama the black guy with the chip on his shoulder. obama played that part perfectly. in politics to these white people who are voting for you , you cant look like the black guy still affected by racism cause in these white folks mind, im voting for you personally, so that proves racism dont exist.

its a political game, and obama just played it politically safe. people can get mad about it, but in the same breath wanted reverend wright to shut his damn mouth up just to get the black guy in. you have to accept the safe route when it comes to this 2nd term too. the only voters obama stands to lose is some of those whites. so he playing to them. get mad if you want but this is how the remainder of this election is going.

Personally, I don't agree with the OP. From what I can see, Mitt won in style/substance AND Facts by comparison. I think he had a well manicured response for any rebuttle Obama would have brought up.

As much as some like to pretend, Mitt clearly outlined points of his plan on the economy to health care and Obama had numerous opportunities counter his points and to state why he disagreed with him in more ways than one. I think that he just didn't because he couldn't. It's as simple as that. It's something I think some are afraid to just admit.

I think that during next debate Obama will come out swinging to some extent, so it should get interesting. But I honestly do believe that Romney has reshaped his image in a matter of hours.
