[Bob Seger]

Sorry Bob, after the Libya fiasco, which Romney actually missed the opportunity to BURY Barack, his facial bewilderment cast a shadow over the rest of his night. Obama came out on the offensive, and though he skirted every topic, his presence was tremendously more polished than Mitt! I'm certainly not looking to cast doubt on Mitt. I want more than anything for him to convey "Presidential Presence" to those undecided! Mitt did early, but he lost his presence when he looked like he was wrong. He even was questioning himself! Mitt was correct, He caught Barack in a Lie, and Candy misspoke - but Mitt lost it and never recovered his same confidence for the rest of the debate. It's OK to look confused, GW did enough of that! But if we want the undecideds to vote properly, you can't lose composure or look unsure of yourself as a President!

I readily admit that. In fact I think I made mention of that, and I dont disagree.

But I still think that he made Obama look bad in the issues of taxes and energy, and while the Libya situation is an important issue, I think that that still lags behind what the importance of what most Americans feel are more important issues at hand. I think the 4 CNN sub polls that address those issues readily confirm my statement, even though the debate numbers favored Obama. Also remember that there was a whopping 15% of the vote that was not included in the tally. I'm curious to what category those votes fell in?
