printMitt Romney won the second presidential debate too. That any normal person watching the brawl would have concluded. But in this country even the polls are bifurcated. GALLUP calls it for Romney (R: 50% O: 46%). An instant, non-scientific CBS poll says Obama curried favor with voters, 37% to 30%.
Because the bar for Obama had been set so low, dumbo’s passable performance fired up the base, not least the groupies at CNN. Chief cheerleader Jessica Yellin was over the moon, darting about fawning over Obama’s enthralled Democratic entourage. (She called it “interviewing.”)
I believe Ann Coulter predicted what has just unfolded. From the first debate, posited Coulter (on Hannity), liberals took away that no good would come from telling the truth about Obama’s dismal performance. Come what may they would, second time around, hail a tolerable performance as a momentous victory.
And this they’ve done, down to Andrew Sullivan, the borderline retarded crunchy con.
