Why do Obama supporters say Obama won? Romney wins on four main issues right?

The president's supporters are hardly going to say that he lost, are they? Cheez.

I am not a supporter of either

Do not like either

Romney clearly won the first debate

He came off likable and show what was lacking in Obama

This time I think Obama came off likable and show Romney weakness

I do not think Romney made his case on any issue and blew it on two

As for someone who does not want to vote for either, Obama would have this win

Romney came off to me very unlikable

I do think he did enough to not have a huge drop

Obama did enough to stop the down slide of his support after the first debate

Obama won this debate

Most polls have Romney coming in 3rd place

Obama has a slight lead over the debate being a tied

If we are giving the first debate to Romney, who in that debate abandoned his campaign positions, then most of us are measuring debates on style rather than substance.

If you are looking at style, Obama clearly had Romney stammer and stumble when Obama confronted Romney when he claimed the president did not see the possibility of that being a terrorist act. It was a very weak moment for Romney and he did not fully recover from it for at least 15 more minutes or arguably the rest of the debate.

Personally, I think Obama won on both substance and style but Romney held up well UNTIL that moment. And that moment was a huge stumble for Romney so much that I repeat it made him look weak... his recovery showed him rattled. I actually felt embarrassed for the guy and that is a bad thing to feel for someone who want that office. It was a cringing moment.

Obama won Romney came off rude

Im more concerned about America winning

who won the debate is in itself debatable, but while more people claim obama won the debate much more claim romney won on how to handle the economy which is what this election really needs to be about.

Damn you republicans are SO in denial, you can't even think straight. What straight foward definite answer did romney give last night and why is his so called plans inconsistent? If you can explain that to me, I'll vote for romney lol. Obama won. Case close. On to the next debate.

Obama supporters would say Obama won. I'm a Romney supporter, guess who I think won.

ROMNEY: "I have a plan! We'll make the economy BETTER! By creating JOBS!"

Sounds like a winner to me! He's clearly fleshed out all the complex details.

(Seriously, people are trusting this guy? Nixon's secret plan for ending Vietnam sounded better than that, and it was a total disaster.)

Holy crap you conservatives are delusional. Just accept it, Obama won this debate. The next debate is on foreign policy. Obama is gonna wipe the floor with Flip Flopney.

EDIT: Linus, we have no problem admitting it if the president loses. We did admit he lost the first debate. Conservatives can't admit Ryan lost his debate and Romney lost this one.

And what pray tell are those issues? Obama won. On to the next debate.

thats been bugginng me all night how does Romney win the leadership and most likely save the economy etc ect but not win the polls is style reallyvthat more important nowadays
