It's 10:23. Romney is spewing like Bill Murray's character in groundhog day. Debate making me ill.

Lehrer was an utter failure - just horrible. Useless.

Romney was an unhinged lie machine - looked and acted like he was on some good shit. Arrogant, rude, bizarre. And yet as much as he spewed, I have this unpleasant feeling that the MSM is going to eat it up.

Obama - measured, smart, controlled - and to my mind, utterly set back on his feet at times by the sheer gall and rudeness and lies of Romney.

I love our president, I am an optimist - and this event just left me feeling sick.

I am hoping that smarter minds will prevail in this country - that the fact checkers will do their jobs....and that for the next debate, Obama realizes what an utter shit of a person he will be facing once again.

This debate is thankfully about over. It did not go as I thought it did. It was a trainwreck to me, painful to watch, painful to listen to. However, my fondness, respect, pride in Obama is not diminished. I think that this was set up very poorly for him to show his best, thanks to Lehrer and whatever shit Romney was on.
