The left must not have been mentally prepared for Obama's stuttering, stammering, deer-in-the-headlights, dismal debate performance Wednesday night. Because the reaction from the left was total meltdown. So I've compiled the best. Feel free to add your own in the comments. The meltdown that started it all:...
