Is anyone else nervous? (A talk me down thread)

I suppose I am every election but since it only happens ever four years, I don't remember being this nervous.

I really don't think Mitt can win this thing (election) but I believe this is the last possible opportunity for him to do so. I've actually been surprised at how bad a candidate he has been and there is a part of me that worries tonight might be the night. He could be charming in a klutzie kinda way and win over enough people to pull this off.

Reassure me. I think what I really need to see is that Obama picture with "I've got this thing" on it. Or the equivalent 0

Obama with an "I got this thing" shirt on might mean AIDS, cause he sure as hell ****ed up everything he has touched.

2. Yes, I'm nervous, too.

But I'm generally a worrier, so I'd be worried if I wasn't worried 

However, I'm positive that Obama and his team will be ready for this debate. And I know that Obama is on the correct side of the most important issues in this country.

My main worry is that Romney will call Obama a liar multiple times and Obama won't be given the time needed to explain nuances of the topic at hand.

Okay.  Mr. President, why did you go to sleep when you knew our Ambassador was under attack and out of communications?  Mr. President, when did you know that this was an Al Qaeda attack and not a spontaneous event?  Mr. President, why didn't you increase protection for the ambassador when he told you he felt threatened?  Nuance that, bitch!

4. No ****ing way... I'm psyched!

Do you honestly thing Romney can suddenly become a competent candidate? His strategy in the primaries was to keep quiet and let the others go at each other. Once he started getting confronted he became flustered and that is going to be his undoing. The fact that he's been practicing "zingers" since August shows us that he has no idea what he's dealing with. It's over.

Then you didn't watch the debates.  He did very well when he had to.  He knows he has to now.

You should be. ABO is going to landslide this thing and Romney is, for better or worse, is ABO.

Oh my yes, the Messiah never, ever lies. He only nuances things to the point they bear no resemblance to reality.  If only the stupid hoi polloi and plebes weren't so ignorant of the 0ne's wise nuancing!
