Romney keeps trying to run roughshod over the moderator.

Obama never got a chance to repudiate the double-the-deficit lie.

I know. I was caught up in the moment. It's just a bit surprising to see one of them so thoroughly smacked down like that.

I missed that, I ran into a wall a minute ago making myself another drink, what was called out?
Also we are talking about gun violence. Surprised topic.

Oh I was pretty surprised too. Just saying that it's a little sad that stuff like that isn't the norm.

Romney is talking about two parent families, amazing chance to talk about gay marriage.

What the fuck? Did Mittens just shift the conversation from gun control to "single parents are bad?"

He was claiming that it took Obama 14 days to call Benghazi an act of terror, but he did so the day after in the Rose Garden.

Yes, yes, he did.

Had to run the DVR back to see that again. Romney said it took 14 days for Obama to call it an act of terror, he got called out because the moderator pointed out it took one day, not 14.

Futzing with China will always be hilarious, because it's not like you personally devalued your own businesses and national economy in the quest for the almighty dollar while giving China the jobs, expertise and equipment they needed to become competitive with you, right Mr Romney?

Obama mentioned he would support a AWB, and expanded on that to comment on how cheap handguns are the main source of gun violence in Chicago. Moderator chooses to bring up statistical outliers to talk about EBRs when asking Mitt about the PAWB.


Mitt perfectly okay with AWBs at the state level, but he pinky-promises he won't do one as POTUS. If he were a Democrat the National Republican Army would be screeching it's head off tomorrow.


Also, automatics are illegal in the US? Who knew?

And that's game, Obama starts shacking hands in the crowd and Romney goes to the moderator.

Obama went from gun control to education.

Both of them, in a round about fashion, were trying to make the argument that violent crime is a bit more nuanced than "guns".
