He'ssssss back!

The great news is that we saw a fiery, feisty, fearless Obama show up for the second Presidential Debate and defeat a defensive, breathless Romney. And while Mitt wasn't ineffective, he was no competition for the President. Obama easily scored high in all areas and defended all the absurd accusations thrown at him. He remained calm, charming and clear-headed while Romney seemed agitated, accusatory and, as usual, petulant. It was a great moment when Candy Crowley pronounced Romney mistaken when he denied that Obama had described the the raid on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi "an attack of terror"from the very beginning.  As the cameras patrolled the after-debate crowd, Romney did not look particularly happy in any shot, while Obama looked flush with victory. To this Democrat the evening was a triumph. I am only left with one perplexing question, which I will  ask by paraphrasing Bill Maher: Who the hell are these idiots who are still undecided in October? Unless they don't watch the news or read the newspaper, they must be complete imbeciles to still not have a clear idea for whom they plan to vote. To program an entire debate around them seems insane to me, but who cares since Obama came out the winner?
