The second presidential debate: 10/16/2012

That backfired on Romney.

Romney keeps trying to interrupt and Obama is blocking him.

CNN’s has real-time ratings by “undecided voters” (green line for men, yellow line for women, you can watch them go up and down as people approve or disapprove of what’s being said).

It’s interesting that the ratings plummet whenever either of the candidates takes a negative tone.

Romney breaking the rules there. Candidates aren’t supposed to ask each other questions.

This following Obama around making hectoring accusations looks terrible.

Exactly.

Romney’s already showing cracks in his facade. There’s fuck all Romney can do about lowering the price at the pump.

Nice! Obama pulled a Biden on that one.

Mittens/Pauly: Bla bla bla.
Obama/Joe: Bullshit!

Fiscal year 2008 Onshore Federal Oil Production: 285,000 BBLs per day.
2011: 306,000

Romney’s claim is not accurate.

Offshore, ditto, 2008: 1,267,000
Offshore, 2011: 1,408,000

Again, not accurate.

Admittedly: 2007: 1,408,000

“It’s conceivable that Governor Romney could bring down gas prices” by crashing the economy again.

Booyah! Call him out on his wind energy comments!

Romney quibbling.

That got a crowd reaction. :smiley:

Romney trying to interrupt again. “It’s my turn! He got the first question! Candy, Candy, Candy…”

He’s acting like a petulant child.

Jesus, Romney, shut the fuck up. You look like a dickhead.

Man, he’s starting to lose it. And he’s being rude to Candy.

He’s planning on becoming dependent on Canadian oil? Please elect him while we hike the prices.

Speaking of “wind jobs”…

:smiley:

“Governor Romney’s policies may well bring down gas prices, because his economic policies will plunge us into recession again!”

Point Obama.

Romney appreciates wind and solar jobs. He just won’t invest in them.

You I like. Obama’s already called him a liar about four times. Joe Biden would have referred to the statements as “malarkey.”

Also, damn it! Candy Crowley was thisclose to just shutting Mitchell’s ass down, but then he assholed his way through.

And the ratings are also very low when they interrupt each other. And by “each other”, I mean when Romney thinks he owns the venue and tries talking over the moderator.

Mitt the Mouth.
