Romney's running to the middle. How surprising.

He's heading back to being Massachusetts Romney. Hence why he's barely winning the debate so far.

I expected Obama to beat Romney tonight.  From what I've seen so far, Obama seems like he's disinterested and hasn't been on his game.  Romney's definitely winning in my book, which surprises me quite a bit.

Romney's winning narrowly, but not greatly. Obama has a B-, Romney has a B

On Lehrer: such is what you're forced to use when you're trying to get a non-partisan moderator.

My Obama voting stepfather just said he thinks "Romney's doing better".

Lehrer is doing a good job. The point of a moderator is to get the candidates engaging on issues, not making sure they give 120 second speeches.

Wow, Romney actually stopped before the moderator jumped in?  Neat.

It's about even so far, or was until Romney mentioned Romneycare as if it were significantly different from Obamacare.

Romney's doing very well - good job on Obamacare, talking to the need to focus on jobs.

Romney's share value in the Iowa Electronic Markets has gone up about 6 cents through the debate.

Wow, HUGE gender gap on the CNN lines of undecided CO voters when Obama defended Obamcare. Women "care" and men don't.

Romney's winning. He's clearer, quicker and is making all of the appeals that he needs to.

Romney started off strong but has since come off as condescending, with repeated talking over the moderator. Obama started off dour, but is now on his game.

Dude, Obama spent 6 months trying to get Olympia Snowe to vote for Bob Dole and Mitt Romney's health care plan.
