I would like to but I am afraid that:
1) Romney will roll over the moderator like a steam roller
2) Even if Obama kicks Romney's butt solidly, the MSM will still declare a win for Romney or at the most a draw
3) I am tired of the MSM continually giving Romney a pass for his lies and fantasys. It is not taking sides to point out the facts.
4) I am really starting to believe that the MSM is helping the Republicans to set up the election to be stolen by Romney (dropping the amount of election day instant polls at the polling sites and not taking a stronger stance on covering Republican voter suppression efforts and their direct efforts to influence the results of the election via the way they present the news.
If Romney manages to steal the election it will mean the end of the country that our forefathers founded.

I am less and less worried that we will lose this thing. I don't think that they will be able to steal the election.

(12,336 posts)I already know who I'm voting for and I'm 100% sure that rmoney is going to lie, so why bother? Besides, there is nothing quite like a game 7 in playoff baseball, so Crads-Giants it is.
Now I may watch tomorrow because I have dvr.
Hell yeah! (But I'll probably flip over during commercials.)

(14,627 posts)every time he speaks. I can't stand to hear his voice any more. I change the channel or mute him every time they show footage of him on the news.
But if I mute him during tonights debate, I may miss another 'binder' moment! What to do?
I don't think MittWits verbal blunders make any real difference in the long run, but I enjoy the hell out of them!

I don't really care what MSM thinks as it's up to us and other voters.
Go Obama!
