Apology Tour

One of Mitt Romney's more powerful ads: 

And it should play well, given the growing public opposition to Obama's policy of appeasement.

Final Debate Recap

Once again, I refer readers to Professor Jacobson's roundup of the Best Tweets of the Debate.

Beyond that, I offer my own quick impressions:  Romney played it conservatively tonight.  His goal seemed to be to distinguish himself more from Bush than from Obama.  Personally, I wish that he drew a few more distinctions between himself and Obama, particularly on Libya.  Nevertheless, he came across as presidential.  Someone the American people should be able to trust as commander-in-chief.  That's the most important takeaway from the night.

President Obama, by contrast, came across as someone trying to play catch up.  He tried to be aggressive, but those efforts mostly came across as petty and snarky.  Not qualities most people look for in a president. 

On that score, I think Romney clear won the night.  More importantly, Romney has had the momentum ever since the first debate and he did nothing tonight to lose it.

Third And Final Presidential Debate

Once again, Vodkapundit will, once again, be drunkblogging tonight's debate.

Foreign Policy

Here is Drudge's headline in advance of tomorrow's foreign policy debate:

Pretty well sums it up, doesn't it?

Imagine That

Breitbart.com:  On CNN's "State of the Union" on September 30, Candy Crowley asked Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) why he thought it took the administration 17 days after the Benghazi attacks to give a "sort of definitive statement" that terrorists orchestrated the attacks.

Plus:  Crowley Let Obama Have Last Word 8 out of 11 times.

And:  Crowley Interrupts Romney 28 Times, Obama Just 9.

Flashback

Obama 0-4 for 2008 townhall-debate promises.

Post-Debate

Professor Jacobson again gives us the Best Tweets of the Debate.

My quick takeaway:  Obama, with help from the moderator, was better than he was during the first debate, though it would have been near impossible for him to be worse.  Romney was just as good as he was the first time around.

Joe, you lied.

Sadly, this administration only seems to worry about religious freedom when adherents turn violent.

Bottoms Up

Vodkapundit is once again willing to put his liver on the line and drunkblog the vice presidential debate. 

President Empty Chair

Remember when the media was mocking Eastwood's speech?

Recap

Over at Legal Insurrection they have the "Best Tweets of the First Presidential Debate."  They confirm what all the talking heads on Fox News and even CNN are saying, Romney dominated the debate.  If even Carville can't spin it in Obama's favor, that tells you something. 

Update:  Wow!  MSNBC too!
