It's official: Mitt Romney crushed Barack Obama in the
first debate. Use any metaphor you want. Whether it was
Romney by Two Touchdowns, as Krauthammer said, or
Romney by a Knockout, per Donald Lambro, it was a
Debate Rout of Herculean Proportions, as per David Limbaugh.
Romney was strong, personable, had complete command of the facts, and radiated leadership.
The One looked stressed, petulant, gave rambling and seemingly meaningless answers, and spent a lot of time making unhappy faces while staring down at his podium.
It seems when finally no longer protected by his "Tokyo Rose" Media, and forced to confront his miserable record, our would-be emperor truly has no clothes and his naked butt was there for all to see (not exactly eye-candy after all).
The best part was the complete meltdown by the Liberal media, especially Chris Matthews, completely befuddled how his all-powerful demigod could have been so completely whipped.
Then there was the Luntz focus group of Colorado undecideds, many of whom were convinced to support Romney on the spot by that total ass-kicking.
All-in-all, a good night that gives us a glimmer of hope that perhaps the country will make the right choice in this election, the choice, as John Ransom says,
between Freedom or Ruin.
"We also believe in maintaining for individuals the right to pursue their dreams, and not to have the government substitute itself for the rights of free individuals. And what we're seeing right now is, in my view is a trickle-down government approach which has government thinking it can do a better job than free people pursuing their dreams. And it's not working." - Mitt Romney Oct 3, 2012
