Debate Central- New Poll(read OP about options)

Moderator did a poor job of selecting questions.

Only one question on Libya? What about Afghanistan and Iraq? What about IRan?

Wasn't this supposed to be about Foreign policy? This entire debate was primiarly double down taking points from the last debate.

[QUOTE="Abbeten"]pretty sure it's decided by coin tossairshocker

I'm talking about the 47% comment.

The final debate is gonna be on foreign policy. Should provide some hilarity.

Obama clearly won this one.

Yep. I need to look up what the third one is, 'cause I dunno about going for round 3 of this.

I just wanted to point out your hypocrisy. You get on Obama for "dodging" the question but no one has done it more than Romney, lol. Does anyone know what his policy on anything is for sure? No. Me doing this does not imply I don't care about the Americans that died in Libya, don't know where you're getting that from..DaJuicyMan

When Romney dodges a question concerning an attack that has gotten Americans killed I'll be on him for it too. He hasn't, though. He's not the President. He's not in the position to get to the bottom of what happened.

The fuk??

Romney's the one that dodged that question................

Well she still got pushed around as well... They were supposed to get two minutes and spent far more talking and the likes... She had a list of them and was reading down it... At the beginning she probably felt they would get to far more questions...

Unsure if the poll results are trust worthy as a major of GS has been pulling for Obama since the summer.Swanogt19

Even the last poll had Obama winning....most of the forum is liberal.

I'm just happy that this debate gave Andrew Sullivan a reason not to off himself.Abbeten

The last poll was "who do you think will win the debate" and was up for some time before the debate took place.

Doesn't change the point I was making

Someone give me some cliff notes. I heard Obama is beasting this debate thoBloodseeker23

"Allow me to explain why my opponent is wrong"

"Allow me to explain why my opponent is wrong about me being wrong"

"Allow me to explain why my opponent is wrong about me being wrong about him being wrong"

"Allow me to explain why my opponent is wrong about me being wrong about him being wrong about me being wrong"

ad infinitum

Question X

Candidate One:

*statement*

Candidate Two:

*that statement isn't true*

*both start talking simultaneously and raise voices*

Question Y

Candidate Two:

*statement*

Candidate One:

*that statement isn't true*

*both start talking simultaneously and raise voices*

Repeat for every question.

It does, since you were implying that GS is so biased that even after Obam's poor showing in the last debate the majority still thought he won. Btw, in most direct polls relating to political affiliation its roughly 55% Democrat/Liberal 45% Republican/Conservative, or atleast it has in the past.

Pretty much until:

Moderator: No Governor Romney, the transcript support President Obama.

Romney: *crickets*

Republican Pundits: Oh, sh1t. We were doing well until then.

Are you referring to the question, "Who turned down the request for more security to the embassy?"mattbbpl

Yeah, it was something like who is responsible for denying the security request. Obama and Hillary obviously didn't make the decision, so who did and when will they be fired/charged?

So is there a general consensus on who won? I think Obama seemed pretty strong, Romney faltered quite a bit.

Didn't watch it. But I think Romney should've followed Pirate700s advice from a previous thread:

:lol: That would be hilarious.

Debate was largely a tie. Personally I though Obama had a considerable advantage in that he actually answer how he wants to do things. Romney just says he wants things to be better.

At the very least, this debate will reinvirgorate the supporters of Obama who were drawn back by his last performance.

Considering you have no idea what you are talking about... Shut the f-ck up...

The government has policies on how they do things... Simply requesting extra security doesn't mean you are entitled to it... If they had no evidence at the time of a security threat then why would the state department send more people? Did they have evidence? What was the state department's reasoning at the time... YOU DON'T F-CKING NO... So f-cking stop it.

If I am in a dry area and want to get fire insurance on my building because forest fires happen a lot, and the insurance company says no, a forest fire isn't enough justification, and then an arsonist sets my building on fire... Sure the insurance company is in the spotlight for not giving me the insurance for fire when a fire did the damage but their decision was based on forest fires... Not a f-cking arsonist.

Obama won this one. Both sides were ackward interrupting each other, the moderater, and dodging questions.

I just keep coming back to one thing. "I have done it." Romney has balanced budgets, created jobs and improved schooling. Romney has private sector experience and know how to encourage private job growth, because he LIVED IT. I dont comprehend why anyone would believe someone like Obama who has zero private sector experience, and has never balanced a budget.

He answered that one in the only way anyone in a leadership position can/should. You can't throw your team mates under the bus and publicly out them.mattbbpl

He didn't answer it. He didn't tell us who in the state department was responsible. I'm tired of this double-standard. In the military if you fvcked up so bad that it got someone killed you were done. That isn't happening here when it should be.

Ballancing a budget in a business where you can act unilaterally and simply cut whatever you want or in a state government/olympic committee where you receive government subsidies is not the same as balancing a budget in a government where you have no power to effect any change yourself and are powerless to cut anything you want at all. That is a sh-tty argument...

When I was in the military security was paramount. If security was needed, it was given. Funding wasn't even mentioned, nor taken into consideration. So I think I know a great deal more about the issue than you do.

[QUOTE="Mafiree"][QUOTE="Abbeten"] that's basically the reason why there were that low though. blaming china wouldn't have made any sense.Abbeten

"This is America. We don't have kings because that's for commies and terrorists, who are the ones raising gas prices. This is why we must spread democracy, which will create jobs. This is why we need Canada's pipeline, but my opponent supports the Queen, Bloc Quebecois and environmentalist extremists. This is raising the unemployment rate and the national debt we are giving to China and their currency manipulation. On day one, I will reverse all of this. A vote for me is a vote for freedom. God bless the U.S.A."

Wish I could have fluently integrated Iran, nuclear weapons, and guns.
