No Post-Debate Bounce?
How the hell is it that Obama has gotten virtually no bounce from the second debate? He was the clear winner and yet Romney's surge has not subsided. Even on Hardball tonight, Chris Matthews and his two guests seemed to be saying that things are falling into place for Romney.

I never expected Obama to win in a landslide--even in late September, when things were going really well, I didn't expect we'd do nearly as well as we did in 2008. Hard to believe that just one debate (the first one) could completely change everything.

While I admit I'm a political junkie, the 2012 election is very personal for me as I am an adult with a pre-existing condition who had a very difficult time obtaining individual insurance coverage for myself last year when my COBRA period was expiring. I was able to get a policy, thank God, but I worry what would happen if I were to become "too sick" down the road and my coverage gets cancelled. I also worry about my two young children and wonder if they will be forced into bankruptcy at some point in their adult lives because they're denied insurance coverage for some assinine reason.

Barack Milhous was the "clear winner" in the last debate?

Uh, I don't think so.

Maybe because everyone is awake now, politically?

The mainstream democrats who post on DemocraticUnderground.com need to realize that reality is much different than what is in their minds.

You have coverage using COBRA? then you don't have a pre-existing condition when changing carriers.   Pre-existing only comes into play when you have lapse in coverage.

No political bounce unless you do a fairly good job.

The problem is he, she, it and people like he, she, it do not even understand how they are ALREADY protected under existing legislation, rules, norms, etc and vote for something based on pure emotion and nothing more. They seem to think that because they don't know about it, it doesn't already exist. It's shameful really, just shameful.

Just because he didn't suck as bad as he sucked in the first debate doesn't make him the clear winner.
