We knew how great Obama was. Because he told us: The 4th Greatest President Ever has an important announcement which reflects the Greatness of His Office and the seriousness of his campaign: Stage 3? Yes, someone is in Stage 3.  Of campaign grieving.  And it's not Mitt Romney. Bargaining — Traditionally the...

Everyone is waiting for October Surprises to be  unloaded on Romney. The Obama campaign and its supporters are desperate, and that desperation will reach a fevered pitch this weekend  if Obama doesn't get a meaningful bounce out of last night's debate.  Few are predicting he will. I consider...

The wheels on the Obama bus are falling off. Unless someone can bring up an October surprise which allows the careening vehicle to hit Romney, the momentum is unmistakably against Obama. The man on the bus just unveiled a strategy of re-introducing himself to the American people --...

Dear Gov. Romney: I apparently disagree with many (most?) of my philosophical compatriots in my assessment of your performance last night.  They think you did much better than I think you did.  But that’s no surprise.  We disagreed after both of the previous debates, too. Why is...

This was a strange debate. It was as if Romney were the incumbent and Obama was the challenger. I felt that Romney was running out the clock from the start, trying not to make any gaffes, proving he is worldly and reasonable. Obama was the aggressor, both in words and demeanor. To that extent, Obama scored "points" but not points that ultimately make a difference. If Obama's job was to disqualify Romney as a potential President, someone too reckless for the job, Obama completely failed. Which means that for Romney, tonight was Mission Accomplished. Tonight's debate will not change the trajectory of the election, and that is good for Romney. Here's how I summed it up: Here are the tweets as the action happened:
