"Our children are our future." If that's so, the future is going to suck.

Once again, the University of Wisconsin in Madison does our state proud!

  After asking one University of Wisconsin student, unimpressed with the president's performance, if he was in fact an Obama supporter, he replied, “the debate changed it…”   

Say what ?

How would a teleprompter help in a debate when noone knows what questions will be asked??

How would a teleprompter help in a debate when noone knows what questions will be asked??

And Noone's not telling.

During at least one of O's press conferences, when no one supposedly knows what questions will be asked, there was a big screen tv in use as a teleprompter. It had the questions and the answers on it. You could see his eyes going back and forth as he just read it. The media knew about it beforehand, they had to play along to get their question in, but you didn't hear anything about it. ABC just happened to cut to an unfortunate camera angle during a reporter asking his question and there it was, under the main camera.

Bottom line, it's a way for someone to feed him answers so he doesn't stutter aaaaand uuum aaaand ah all damn night. During the debate, he ummed and ahhhed during his opening remarks, specifically the part where he was WISHING HIS WIFE A HAPPY ANNIVERSARY. If he can't say that straight through, how will he make it through an intelligent discussion of tax rates without sounding like a complete idiot?

My analysis is that Obummer might be a good lecturer but he is not that good in a debate. Romney is going to kick his ass in the second and third debate also.

Obummer will do a better job in the next two debates cause he could not do any worse, and all the liberal talking heads will declare him the winner.

I like the guy who says, "Of course, it's nearly impossible to memorize an hour and a half debate."

I was like, "Dude!"

And he was all, "Duuude!"

Now the line is, Obama wanted to set the bar very low for debate #2.....

That is the nonsense I am reading here in liberal heaven - Romney bully.   Obama is playing rope-a-dope with him.  blah blah blah. 

Fantastic campaign strategy for the messiah.   The press has to feel slighted they weren't let in on the plan... or where they...

Think of any Heavy Metal band unplugged. Sure, they can take the stage, but, will they still Rock the House?

(As a side note I happened to see Joan Baez in concert just after 9/11  when she lost her sound system in the middle of the performance.  She sounded as good in the third balcony with as without, a testement to both her voice and the accostics of the auditorium)
