I say Mitt Romney won, and quite decisively. He was on the offensive all night long and didn't let Barack Obama get away with any of his expected diversions and evasions, nor did he accept Bob Schieffer's false premises. I'm thinking that Mitt-mentum will continue. What say you?

This campaign will be remembered as the incredible shrinking presidency.

Agree totally. Romney was calm, strong, knowledgeable, and, above all, believable. No one believes Obama anymore.

The difference in the quality of their voices is striking, isn't it?

I thought Romney won, the win was not as sound as the 1st debate, but it was a clear Romney win.

Mitt sounded steady and strong, he didn't let Obama's continuous "you're lying" accusations ruffle him at all. I feel positive. Now it's all about TURNOUT!!!

I only saw the last ten minutes, in that ten minutes, Romney looked great, Barry looked punch drunk.
I wonder what the spin will be?

Good debate. I thought Schieffer did a good job just bringing up issues and letting them talk. It seemed that the President kept looking to him for an assist.

The debate clearly did not happen like it did in my nightmare, which is such a relief.
Also the moderator was not perfect but he did a pretty job. Especially in comparison to the previous two moderators.

Re: Tonight's Foreign Policy Debate: Who Won?
I had to flip around. The Cards need my help and yours. Mitt appeared to be squinting and pained. Just a visual impression. Y'all say he did well. Were the "undecideds" swayed?

Good Romney debate. Obama defined petty with his attitude and answers.

Why is it "Mitt-mentum[?]"
Would a better version, and less clunky, be "Mo-Mitt-um[?]"
MoMittum!

Like Katievs, I thought Benghazi would be prominent tonight. Just a fleeting mention early on. Weird.
