Debates in the final analysis are about appearances; a look at a watch; a sigh or drinking water non stop. Even with the biting tone, the president came across like a gentleman. Sure he was adamant as he certainly should have been when Romney downright lies. The reply to many Romney lies and half truths was swift and succinct. On the other hand I thought Romney in the second debate was the same as the first in that I took Obama out of the equation for the first debate and felt significantly Romney was a bully, mean and disrespectful to the president.
I place Obama in the second debate and Romney is the SAME a bullyish battering ram. Obama was his usual cool. Moreover, there are other body elements that are telling even though they may seem trivial and that is THE EYES. The eyes tell a lot. Romney was blinking a mile a minute. Sometimes he did so much that he appeared he would even cry although that was simply an appearance. I believe his wooden robototic-like empty suit self would not cry at anything except if he loses the presidential bid which I do think he will. The president, if one watched his eyes, they were steady and slower as if he were talking while having a cup of coffee. He seemed relaxed but adamant.
My take: OBAMA as the days go on will take this as a SIGNIFICANT win. Romney looses it and in some cases, as now indicated by flash polling, among undecideds loses big.
One last thing: Republicans left that room like a speeding bullet. The president lingered on stage longer. Romney was gone swiftly. The press room afterward was ALL Democrats. Last week the opposite was true. That says it all.
My personal editorial comment: I hope the president crushes Romney in the third debate once and for all. There is NOTHING Romneybot is, says or does that does not repulse and nauseate me! A win by him and his utra extremist, nativist, hateful , racist Party makes me start to contemplate my alternatives --Self deportation or I do not know what. I believe IF the president comes on even stronger in the third debate. He WILL win a second term! I am surely happier after the second debate than I was a week ago!
WE NEED TO WORK AS HARD AS POSSIBLE NOW TO MAKE SURE THE PRESIDENT IS RE-ELECTED TO A SECOND TERM AND ELIZABETH WARREN FROM MASSACHUSETTS TO THE US SENATE.
