Irrespective of what you think about Mitt Romney and his positions (and I disavow Mitt’s “repeal-and-replace statism“), what he is in the process of demonstrating in this first of 3 debates, at the time of writing, is his superior intelligence, his ability to store immense amounts of information and apply it to bolster his arguments.
Abilities his rival, Barack Obama, manifestly does not possess. Romney has just demolished Barack Obama.
Ann Romney knows of what she speaks when she said, “One Thing I Know About Mitt. He Doesn’t Fail.”
This picture (of Obama, in particular) says it all:
The media, however, will prove blind to the effects of Mitt Romney’s superior intelligence in this demolition of a debate because they are rooting for the one candidate.
