Romney A-
Obama C+

Romney lost points for speaking too fast, and speaking over Jim Lehrer, who, while being an especially terrible moderator, looked particularly old and frail, and thus warranted sympathetic treatment.

An all round terrible performance by Obama - slow, stuttering, confused, dispassionate - but no major gaffes so still a pass.

After tonight, does Mitt Romney now pose a serious threat to Obama?
Will he be our next president?

I really didn't think it was as bad for Obama as everyone was saying. Substance-wise for sure. I'm confused by the reactions.

Obama seemed ill-prepared.

Anyone know if the debate influenced the polls much?

Agree and admit to a false vote here for Obama. Could negate with another vote but will not.

I looked at history of how debates effect the final result. Romney is still in deep shit over his current numbers. Even if he jumped up a couple of points, he still loses in the Electoral college by a wide margin.

Rasmussen was one of two pollsters with the best accuracy in the last Presidential election.

Keep your eyes on CNN. They were also very accurate. They were the most accurate on Individual State results.

Are you not a native English speaker? It was terrible for Obama. I felt almost as bad for Obama as I felt for Jimmy
