    So, what was your full point?

    You made the argument that polls reflected your position of Romney not being disrespectful, rude, etc.

    Yet these polls you cite show Obama with a commanding lead in likeability (22 points).

    You were wrong, you were stupid, and now you're just belligerent. You're even down to your Hail Mary tactic you constantly employ, where you say I'm just like Ben in the same post where you parrot the same opinions Ben has with similar tact and style as well.

      He's also a gaffe machine. Not on the order of a Joe Biden, mind you, but he is prone to lots of self-inflicted ****eduppery, especially on foreign policy. The fact that he botched that last night should come as a surprise to precisely zero people.

        He's really no more of a gaffe machine than Obama. Almost whenever Obama gets off his teleprompter he says something stupid (this last debate being a rare exception). "You didn't build that", "Guns and religion", "Private sector doing just fine". The difference is the press tends to give him a pass, but roast Romney for minor slip-ups.

          Yup. It's the damned conspiracy theories all over again.

            So true. In the first debate the Republican pundits said "Obama isn't smiling. Clearly no one can trust a candidate who won't smile" while in the VP debate they said "Biden was smiling way to much; clearly the man is unhinged!"

            No matter what happens in the debate the spinmeisters will just make **** up.

              Please come back to the reality based universe. Right now you're babbling about some alternate universe which bares absolutely no relationship to the real world.

                To be honest, you just blamed the press in the post right above that one (though you called them "spinmeisters")

                  I was actually curious if he'd grasp that on his own.

                      Its Oerdin - why would you think he's going to grasp it even now?

                          I can see why Asher hates Ben so much. Oftentimes the people we tolerate the least are those that are the most similar to ourselves.
                          You can see it. I can see it. Why can't Asher see it?

                            You realize you've been getting ridiculously creepy, re: Asher, right?

                              You are both delusional, so I cannot "see it".
