1st Presidential Debate Official Thread!

His plan is to lower everyone's taxes. Get your head out of the sand.

So give the rich a major tax cut and give working man a token tax cut just to say that he cut everyone's taxes. Great idea to me.

So this makes you feel better??? You and the whole country saw that Obama is a stuttering idiot when it comes intellectual debate but as long as uninformed people vote for him and he wins all the votes, Obama loving people such as yourself are fine with him running this country. Unbelievable!! All you care about are numbers???? If you really cared about this country's future you need to get off your Obama loving train and care about matters that will affect us all.

HA!

Very entertaining, but as "Bad" as Obama has been, the GOP are worse....MUCH WORSE!

This is "picking your poison", I have to choose one, I'll go for the one that is least lethal!

20% is more than a token tax cut.

Guys, can we just agree that neither Mitt Romney nor Barack Obama are setting out to "ruin" the country? People are allowed to have different ideas. There's just way to much vitriolic speech coming from the general population.

+1, I think both Obama and Romney really think their plans will help the economy. I just personally think Romney's plan will help out our country a lot more.

[JustAlex]

I was impressed with Romney's performance last night. He really came through when needed. Obama was obviously told to play it safe, and in doing so he was not very aggressive. He and his advisors will use this debate to alter their strategy and come at Romney harder in the next one. Count on it. History tells us that debates do not have a major impact on election day. I doubt that will change here.

My thoughts exactly.

I think they didn't see it coming.....Romney had a very bad September, and he came out swinging.

That's the thing....if you're playing a "Desperate" team, they will do anything possible to win.

Every major poll shows Obama winning, Every Electoral College projection has Obama up by a sizable margin, his camp sees this and they've decided to make their move RIGHT NOW.....which to say the very least, is smart of them.

You're trolling me, right?

When you pay zero in income taxes, a tax cut is meaningless to you.

[boba]

When you pay zero in income taxes, a tax cut is meaningless to you.

Yeah but he said a "working man". Last I checked most working men pay income tax. Heck, when I was 16 and had my first job I paid income tax.

[JustAlex]

NO ONE can deny that under Clinton we had MUCH HIGHER taxes and we had an Economic BOOM.

"Dubya" comes in and ruins this country with his illegal wars, spending like crazy, giving everyone tax cuts when it WASN'T necessary, and leaving office with a crisis.

Obama comes in and tries to work with the GOP, only to find out they are not interested....AT ALL!

After all their #1 Priority was (and IS) to make Obama a ONE term president.


The GOP are nothing but filthy traitors!

[Wickabee]

please explain the "stupid trickle down economics nonsense". you are buying obama's bs hook line and sinker.

That's it. Right there!

AUT, do you truly not know what trickle down economics is? I cannot believe that for one second. Yet, you ask a question you already know the answer to in order to trip up alex because he doesn't want to bother with useless questions (ie: ones you already know the answer to).

Stop with the stupid little tactics and just discuss things. I don't know if it makes you feel superior to do that, but let me assure you, you are not.
