All over Lib Land this morning, you can hear the sound of weeping, wailing and gnashing of teeth as Obama’s epic fail in last night’s opening debate prompted an unheard of outpouring of honesty from the liberal commentators. Here is a sampling of what they had to say:
Mitt Romney dominated the critical first presidential debate Wednesday night, landing punch after punch on a noticeably subdued President Obama. – The Hill
From CNN: Call it the curse of incumbency. Like many of his predecessors, President Obama fell victim Wednesday night to high expectations, a short fuse, and a hungry challenger. If Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney didn’t win the first of three presidential debates outright, he more than covered the spread. He was personable, funny, and relentlessly on the attack against a heavily favored Obama. The president looked peeved and flat as he carried a conversation, for the first time in four years, with somebody telling him he’s wrong. source – CNN
From MSNBC – Chris Matthews: “I don’t know what he was doing out there. He had his head down, he was enduring the debate rather than fighting it. Romney, on the other hand, came in with a campaign. He had a plan, he was going to dominate the time, he was going to be aggressive, he was going to push the moderator around, which he did effectively, he was going to relish the evening, enjoying it,” Matthews said. source – Real Clear Politics
From James Carville: “Let’s be real,” Carville said. “They have run a very good campaign thus far. I don’t think that President Obama did what this campaign wanted him to do. I think he was off his game tonight. But let’s don’t go overboard here. It will be like a big sort of push-back … My point is this — President Obama came in, he wanted to have a conversation. It takes two people to have a conversation. Mitt Romney came in with a chainsaw. He’s trying to talk to a chainsaw.” source – Daily Caller
“This is what happens when u pick John Kerry as your debate coach.” – Michael Moore
From Michael Moore: Liberal filmmaker Michael Moore was disappointed with President Barack Obama’s performance at the first debate at the University of Denver on Wednesday night and, he made his views known on Twitter to his over one million one hundred thousand followers.
Moore re-tweeted: “If Romney keeps this up…Obama is going to vote for him!”
“Is Bill Clinton coming in to sub next quarter? O! Wake up! Attack! That is not Joh McCain over on that podium!”
“Romney is channeling the look and sound of Reagan. Obama is giving a professor’s lecture. Note to O: Don’t wait til later to throw a punch.” source – Washington Times
