Now that the Dust has begun to Settle

by Dee Newman

Now that the dust has begun to settle and the political pundits and spin-doctors have had their say (officially declaring that Mr. Romney won the debate on style) we are beginning to hear from "regular people" about the debate. As it turns out the harshest critic of the President's performance came from his most ardent supporters, not Independents nor even Republicans. They were disappointed that the President failed to take advantage of numerous opportunities to attack his challenger. But, it seems that many Americans believe (as I do) that there is something truly perverse about giving Mr. Romney the "win" when he literally lied his way through the entire debate.
