Also, even expert financial risk practitioners have no ******* clue what Dodd-Frank actually entails.
It will be refreshing to see Jim interrupt the president.
@Gargamel,
What are you talking about?
Obviously he has an adoring throng, but they are not at the debate are they?
@Gargamel,
It's clear from tonight's debate that Romney understands it a lot better than the president.
Finally he interrupts the president and Obama gets snotty.

It may be clear to you. Tomorrow we'll see what the general population thinks.
Obama is revealing that he understands his own programs at only the most superficial level.
@Lustig Andrei,
Obviously it's not to clear to you. Do you need the general population to confirm your belief?
Obama: I love the middle class, and I'm going to say it every time I can.
Is the federal government going to hire thousands of more teachers?

No, it just further confirms Romney's full of ****. Which explains your support for him.
@Gargamel,
Another intellectual contribution from Gargamel.
Obama just can't forego class warfare. It's in his blood.
Somehow for Obama 2 minutes are really 4 minutes.
$90 billion spent on green energy would have paid for 2 million teachers.
Great line.
Did Romney just imply that he's one of the people who's hurting?
@DrewDad,
interest rates on money markets are way down, even for billionaires, dd...
What is Obama's plan?
For those of you who are so quick to criticize Romney's, let's see if you can articulate the president's.
My first impression as this first debate concludes is that both candidates played their hands as well as they could be played. (Indeed, Romney played a few cards he didn't even have; the tax plan he talked about bore no resemblance to the tax plan he and Ryan had presented.)
Since the debating performance was about equally well on both sides, and since expectations were much higher for Obama than for Romney, I predict that test audiences will call it for Romney by a narrow margin. It's not fair; it's not my own call, but I think it'll be the call of the test audiences.
PS: Did somebody time the debate? It seems to me that Obama did talk for a longer time than Romney did.
