Snap Debate Reactions

Usually find myself in agreement with just about everything you write. But this article is mainly built upon sheer optimism.



I'm not the only in history to repeatedly say, "A lie, left uncountered, will become the truth." I had to turn the TV off last night. romney would churn out a package of lies and then Obama would pensively stand, in clear and obvious agony, trying to find a way to rebut romney's without calling any attention to the core lies under romney's words.



The President is so desperately and paralyzingly afraid of confronting someone that he surrendered that debate. Looking feeble and intimidated, he consistently came across as the least-prepared because he couldn't bring himself to counter romney's often groundless claims.



Based on the 'snap polls' showing that likely voters saw romney crush Obama, it's clear that the President's long-standing belief that America rejects politicians who go toe-to-toe with their opponents needs to turn around - and fast.



Maybe the President only needs to run out the clock here for a win - but he had a chance to put away romney last night and got pounded instead. We'll know better over the next few days if the President is in trouble.



Bottom line: fact checks the day after mean absolutely nothing... if the President doesn't shove the fact check results into the face of the debate-watchers DURING the next debate, then romney can feel free to say whatever he wants with impunity.
