  Obama VS Romney, round 2!
  
  Let's see if Obama's better prepared this time around.

  eh, it's foreign policy.
  not going to be entertaining.

  It just might be entertaining. I would say that foreign policy is Romney's weak side and he's said some pretty .. strange things when it comes to that. I wonder if he'll be more careful this time around. Meanwhile, Obama's main weakness in foreign policy is Israel, AFAIK. He'll probably get grilled on that.
  
  Foreign policy stuff is one of my favourite topics. *_*;

  this is how it's going to go
  Romney will talk about Obama is making the United States weak with all his speeches and being responsible for the embassy attack (while the Republican Congressmen cut funding for the military at the embassy)

  stream with less than 250k viewers about politics: lags to hell, unwatchable.
  stream of some guy jumping out of a space baloon with almost 10m peak viewers: perfect streaming at 720p.
  
  Guess I'm not going to be able to see this one.

  Alternate stream, cause YouTube's is overloaded: http://www.cbc.ca/news/live/2012/10/watch-the-us-presidential-debate-and-join-our-live-chat.html
  Dunno if it's accessible outside Canada.
  
  @cat: I hope it won't be limited to something that dull. :P
  
  Ouch, Obama just got pwned on oil production. x(

  You're not missing much. Just Romney bullshitting and saying what people want to hear. Though Obama seems to be back on his feet and is throwing Romney's shit right back at him. He's on the offensive and defensive now.
• Yoorah wrote on 2012-10-17 01:24
  Aw, Obama just made an immature comment. :( The whole "romney will reduce gas prices by screwing the economy again." xd
  
  ....and now they are interrupting and fighting, wtf. :|

  Obama is probably really pissed off from the last debate, he's muuuuuch more aggressive this time, maybe even a little too much.
• Celicia wrote on 2012-10-17 01:25
  The unfortunate part about this Debate is that the Mediator is from Liberal based CNN.

  She's been letting Romney say whatever he wants even though he wasn't supposed to be able to talk, but shut off Obama twice now... I'd say if she's not fair she's benefited Romney more so far.
  
  The mediator just has to throw a question and let it ping pong once each, I'm not sure why its such a tough job for them.
• Celicia wrote on 2012-10-17 01:32
  No matter the Mediator, I assume it is because they are in the presence of two men of high potential and esteem. Whether one agrees with President Obama's policies or Governor Romney's policies, everyone is at a consensus that the change in aura when either (or in this case both) are in a room is overwhelming.

  Well, it really is quite laggy. I wonder how many people are understanding what they're saying, [S]unlike that communist-idiot lady[/S].

  I think I've heard one of the best hits on incumbent President Obama thus far by Governor Romney this session:
  
  

  Obama has made many promises, and it was he not I. And he, not I, has failed to keep those promises. Lower the deficit by half, he has in fact risen it by three times its previous amount. Fix the job loss our Nation has fallen to, he has instead created Obamacare, which from the small businesses I've visited have actually said 'We love it because it helps us not hire more people.' That doesn't build jobs, it prevents job creation. If you choose to re-elect President Obama, you will at least know what you'll receive, the same rhetoric as you have these past four years. I know and understand he means well, but it just isn't working.

  I have a hard time hearing Romney's point through all the lies, interruptions, repetitiveness and general disrespect towards Obama and the even Moderator. Too bad they can't show the recorded clips of all the past statements Romney made that contradict the current bullshit he's spouting.
