In the Fables of Aesop there is a tale of "the Duck and the Mascot" employed as minions to the emperor and both get squashed by an ACME anvil falling from a canyon cliff. The little umbrella opened seconds before the fatal impact, but did not assuage the bloody splattering on the desert sand.
If only real life would unfold like that....

Oh....and before I forget.....for you women out there......

According to Romney at last night's regurgitation of "we can fix that but cannot tell you exactly how but you must trust us even though our numbers don't add up"......it is "more better" for working gals to have a flexible schedule so they can be home by seven to cook dinner.
I am sure "frozen-smile- Mitt" scored huge amongst women voters with that gem.

You noticed that also.
A continual call for Romney to explain everything in detail and Obama simply says hang in there, we'll get there.
We have not yet, my record sucks but don't you worry.
The left will focus on the minor wording here and there, like stats already did.
At the same time they ignore moments like when Romney laid out just some of his record and experiences at running MAJOR operations and balancing budgets.
Some of the media kept on saying Obama was so energetic and on target compared to last time, no big achievement there, last time he was like one of the walking dead.
This debate was basically a tie, don't expect any big points either way.
This election is in a dead heat and in the end Romney will win.

I now think - surprisingly, that could actually happen. The debates have been one of the best things to happen to the Romney campaign.

To me, what is coming out loud and clear from the debates is the fundamental difference between O and R, and can usually be applied to most leftist vs conservative politicians:

Obama is a talker.

Romney is a doer.

Right Wing---Many of Romney's BIG Businesses pulled out of the U.S. for other countries with cheaper labour---You know this but never mention it when you talk of Romney's business achievements.

As for the Debate being a tie---in your opinion---It was an Obama win in my opinion.
MascotW 10/17/2012 9:23:45 AM Report

MR.ROMNEY or MR.OBAMA

I would tend to believe that, the TV talks went more ~ neck to neck ~ than not,which is somewhat, how, I heard what the, OUTCOME, was last evening !

I did not have to time to watch it.

Nonetheless, some fast poll result, also is suppose to have that type, of an outcome.

Irregardless and without doubt in me, my global perspective is that it would be best for the WORLD for Mr. Romney to be the next President of the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.

That is unless Mr. Obama makes some major CHANGES, in his strategy before the NOVEMBER ELECTION Date !

I made my choice and decision based on one of his head games to try to manipulate votes, in either August or September.

In MY VIEW, he BLEW IT BIG TIME, in that timeframe !

Would you please not jump to conclusions about anything ?

Alrighty !
flyhawk25 10/17/2012 9:24:26 AM Report

If anything it was a slim Obama win.
I agree with right wing - it is a dead heat.
It just underlined how dumb the average voter is.
As long as the Republicans continue to block every idea this president proposes nothing will get done.
The fact that Ryan leads the charge for obfuscation and Romney flip flops more than a pole dancer at a picnic would drive me nuts.
But the Democrats with Pelosi were at least as guilty.
In the meantime big banks are doing just fine and the defense budget is bullet proof. It looks like they won't stop building naval vessels until there is one for every member of congress and the senate.
Yet they continue to get their butts kicked by two dollar Walmart technology.
Just spend baby spend.

Yes I keep reading that claim.
Perhaps you could list one of those Romney "BIG Businesses" that pulled out of the country for cheaper labour.

Don't come back with investment listings because as Romney pointed out to Obama last night, many folks have off shore investments.

bluesslinger 10/17/2012 9:42:02 AM Report

Luntz Focus Group of mostly former Obama voters say they have switched to Romney after the debate.

Even MSNBC's (!!) panel of undecided voters have been swayed toward Mitt Romney after the debate.

That's even after the mod gave Obama 9% more time than Romney and deflected for him on the Benghazi "this is not a terrorist act" issue.

USA Today reported that women are turning away from Obama. "In every poll, we've seen a major surge among women in favorability for Romney"
Now, the USA TODAY/Gallup Poll shows Romney leading Obama 50%-46% among likely voters in the swing states.

Right Wing---When you ask me for some of Romney's failures but said I can't use Investments as an example--That is an unfair challenge because most of Romney's Successes and Failures have come with Investments Firms.

I have read Wikipedia's file on Romney and he has as many losses as failures in his business ventures.

He has avoided paying as much taxes as he should have by putting a lot of money in Off-Shore Banks.

And some of the Companies that he had investments in did go Off shore for lower Labour costs after he left those companies.

I have to leave for now but rest assured I will be back with more on Romney that you won't like to read because you only write positive thngs about Romney.

Ace Here Mascot,
Obama said he supports equal pay for women.The why does he pay his female staff who do the same work as thew male staff 18% less?

Obama took back the drilling leases on federal lands and offshore from the oil companies.He claims there is more drilling which was not true there was actually less.The oil companies have to study the leases to ensure there is oil and gas deposits on the lease sites first the process can take up to 5 years before drilling starts.Obama tried to avoid the question till Romney force the answer.

Obama on Libya,he has missed the majority of national security briefings to golf or campaign.He knew from the beginning that it was a terrorist attack.Under his Obama watch has not used the words "Terrorist Attack" used another term.He had his spin doctors spin a lie that this was the result of a film and was not a terrorist attack.We all witness that. He lied to the people.

Obama's claims to have Al Quida on the run.The reality is that Al Quida has come back bigger and more dangerous than ever.

Muslim Brotherhood is affiliated with Al Quida and other extremist Islamic groups.

Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood has become allies with Iran and is trashing the Camp David Peace Accord it has called for a Jihad against Israel.Egypt is about to become a violent enemy of Israel and the USA all on Obama's watch.

And all the lefties (and CNN fact checkers) say that he did refer to it as a terrorist attack in the Rose Garden the next day. The word terror only came out half way through his speach and right after he referenced 9/11. Leading up to this he never used the word terror or terrorist to describe the attack. He could have opened with that but buried the word.

Also with regard to China's currency manipulation, during Obama's 4 years he said that the Yuan has gone up by 11 % while in fact it is only 9. Under Bush's second term it was 21%. Just sayin'

He could have appointed an Interim Premier and let the Legislature continue.

McGuinty jumped a sinking ship in my opinion.

right wing 10/17/2012 7:41:46 PM Report

Crock of sh*t.
Obama did not call the attack in Libya a terrorist attack when he gave the speech in the Rose Garden.
Not that it means diddly but the moderator was out of line in her correction, the lefty kiss ass media is trying to make it into a big deal and the fact is Romney was correct.
This will eventually come out.

I did my due diligence and just to please the resident lefties I googled the crap out it and then did some copy and pasting.
Just so my good friends the little lefties would get to know the truth and not have to do the research.

The word terrorist never does get used, the word terror gets used a full seven paragraphs into Obama's speech.

The following are all statements that Obama made prior to him using the word terror.


"Yesterday, four of these extraordinary Americans were killed in an attack on our diplomatic post in Benghazi."

"The United States condemns in the strongest terms this outrageous and shocking attack."

"And make no mistake, we will work with the Libyan government to bring to justice the killers who attacked our people."

"there is absolutely no justification to this type of senseless violence."

" Libyan security personnel fought back against the attackers alongside Americans."

So Obama called it an attack (twice) which was shocking and outrageous and he referred to what later proved to be terrorists as attackers and killers.


This is the full context of when he actually used the word terror, not terrorist attack or terrorists, but terror.

"Of course, yesterday was already a painful day for our nation as we marked the solemn memory of the 9/11 attacks. We mourned with the families who were lost on that day. I visited the graves of troops who made the ultimate sacrifice in Iraq and Afghanistan at the hallowed grounds of Arlington Cemetery, and had the opportunity to say thank you and visit some of our wounded warriors at Walter Reed. And then last night, we learned the news of this attack in Benghazi.

As Americans, let us never, ever forget that our freedom is only sustained because there are people who are willing to fight for it, to stand up for it, and in some cases, lay down their lives for it. Our country is only as strong as the character of our people and the service of those both civilian and military who represent us around the globe.

No acts of terror will ever shake the resolve of this great nation, alter that character, or eclipse the light of the values that we stand for. Today we mourn four more Americans who represent the very best of the United States of America. We will not waver in our commitment to see that justice is done for this terrible act. And make no mistake, justice will be done."

So at the opening of his speech, although Obama had ample opportunity, he does not call them terrorist attacks or terrorist, he called it attacks and killers.
Why if, as he is now claiming that he knew, it was a terrorist attack.
He uses the word terror only after addressing 9/11.
Obama did not officially or directly call the act in Libya an act of terrorist for a full 14 days.

Now all you lefties can sleep better tonight knowing the truth.
Your welcome.

BB I absolutely agree with you. Even though he beat Romney in the debate last night and even though a few will spend hours trying to prove or disprove whether he said "terror" or "terrorist" the next day or two weeks later, he knows that his job is not for real. The whole thing is just a game. In terms of the economy, it will make little difference who wins except for the very rich or the poor. In terms of foreign policy, I don't think, in the end, there will be a difference, except that Republicans tend to be less diplomatic and more rw.ish In terms of world perception of the USA, I think it will be huge, but that may not really mean a lot as the US seems to be sinking into an isolationalist thing anyway. Their economy, with either as president will improve over the next few years, but, I feel, that Romney will be considered a dolt on the world stage (as he already is). I hope Obama wins, but I'm not sure if he does.

All of these things happened under Dubya. These were his mess. And you can't see that! So what's the point??

He (Obama) cares too much for his own good/health. He knows now that it is all smoke and mirrors. He peaked behind the curtain in Ozland and saw the Koch brothers. Dubya never made a decision in his life. The neo-con machine were pulling the strings. He was a very obvious puppet. He made a fool of himself and that, in itself is OK.
