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

Wow really? My die-hard Hannity grandmother just said she will vote for Obama based on the debate.

Obama is definitely off tonight.  He missed SO many opportunities to hound Romney.

Romney is holding his ground, but I don't see a clear winner yet.

~25 minutes left.  Romney's doing well.

Will it matter?  A little, but not enough.

Romney's winning. He's clearer, quicker and is making all of the appeals that he needs to.
Obama is coming across as too professorial, his answers are too long.

My gay pinko-commie hippie brother says his vote is sold to Romney.

Obama is 90 seconds into explaining what a "death panel" is. Not good for him.

Romney has the smirk of a man with the #1 zinger on the list up to bat.

Do you do anything on here other than say my [enter family member or friend name here] said [enter something bad about Obama here] even though he/she once liked Obama [or something like that]!

last month Romney's campaign made it clear that his replacement plan would not cover pre-existing conditions for those who didn't have continuous coverage. He just blatantly lied

Romney seems actually excited to be there and discuss the ideas. Part of what swept Obama into office in 2008 was his passion and optimism. It's lacking tonight.

We're going to see a small bump out of this for Romney. The momentum shifted a bit in his direction, which was what he needed. He can keep building from there.

Healthcare seemed really bad for Obama.  Shares for Romney on Intrade and IEM went up fairly quickly after that.
