Obama's waking up right now. He was bombing at first but now he is doing well.

Segment 1:
Romney - B+
Obama - C+

My biggest problem with Romney thus far is the way he's acting towards the moderator, actually.

Romney is animated, and Obama is describing his plans in clear terms. It's like watching George Bush debate Bill Clinton.

The President's team have analysed them GOP debates to find how best to get Mitt angry. Well done, it's working!!! He won't make it through 3 of these without snapping.

The lines on CNN seem to like Romney more, I'm actually getting nervous.

Undecided voters tend to vote republican more in the end anyways.

Romney was doing well until he started talking about Big Bird, that was a big mistake basically admitting he'd cut PBS

Obama is much better at getting Lehrer to shut up without sounding douchey.

Edited:

Romney needs 100% of undecideds (based on the RCP avg and assuming 1% vote 3rd party) and obviously he isnt going to get ALL undecideds. Romney needs to peel away some Obama voters

Obama's answer to this question is actually very good, though lengthy.

Who cares what those imbeciles think?  I don't think there's a single worse indicator of what most people actually think.

Good to see that Obama's getting good reviews on the economy and budget deficit, these are usuallly areas where Obama trails in the polls and in the case of the budget deficit trails by 10% or so. So, good so far for Obama.

But when the foreign police debate rolls around, Obama will destroy Romney.
