~~Mitt Romney stands out because—unlike so many candidates in the past—he understands how to build businesses, create efficiencies, make tough deals and carefully consider divergent viewpoints. America needs a strong leader, a practical leader.~~

Pretty well says it all!!

"True, Mr. Obama deserves credit for strong, decisive action that helped prevent a catastrophic economic meltdown on Wall Street. The financial services sector, the city’s most important industry, came very close to the unthinkable as once-unshakable entities—Bear Stearns, Lehman Brothers, Merrill Lynch—simply vanished. Mr. Obama’s policies helped to shore up the industry and, thus, the city." What??????

That's the New York Observer - should have been posted as that. Last I looked, they were a local lib paper, but I haven't looked in a while. If it's still a lib paper, then this is quite a surprise.

OT. I do hope that I can see the comments tonight on the debate thread...I was not able to even load the thread at all for the last two between Romney & O and Ryan & B
God Bless you Romney!! and may the good Lord above give Zero a stuttering tongue with every lie he tells!!
Put HIS own evil deeds a thousand times fold upon his own head

Just wow

Dear God, by your Grace I am blessed Oh Lord please save America from the wrath of the evil doers. Please help all America to watch the debate with a clear vision. Please help them not be misled by fast talk, promises and lies. Please grant them the wisdom to make the right choice that will benefit America and all that believe in the glory of God.

Amen

I am not watching, but I am praying too, God bless Mitt Romney tonight.

I can't bear to watch because I detest the sound of the thug's voice. And we just bought a new TV and my hubby wouldn't like it if he came home from work to find my high heel has shattered the glass screen........
I am praying and reading any Lucianne thread I can.......

The world turned upside down. Hot is cold; cold is hot. And the New York Observer endorsed Romney. Be still my heart.

Obama is lying thru his teeth.

last 2 debates, conservative sites like lucianne.com and freerepublic were hacked.
Don't blame them for not having a roundtable this time around.

0bama just doubled down on the lie about drilling on public land. He'll pay for that one in the morning. Actually Mitt's making him pay now..

It seems to me obama is causing the fact checkers to work overtime tonight. Boy, what whoppers! He thinks he's being tough, but he just sounds like a rehearsed classroom teacher. He doesn't even answer the questions asked of him.

As Bugs Bunny would say, what a moe roon.

I have prayed and read my Bible for most of the debate. Happy to see others are praying the same prayers as me! May God bless this country!!!

No need to listen to the serpent's voice. That's what the mute button is for.

I agree that Lucianne probably could not afford to have another thread hacked. Let's hope that nonsense stops when we win the country back.

Listening to Mitt answer the question about who he is. Very nice.

The New York Observer editorial board comes out for Romney! Will wonders never cease...

Send this one to your Democrat friends. One of their house organs has gone over to the other side. And rightfully, sensibly so.

I am so glad this was made a Must Read. Thanks for posting it, OP. It's illuminating to read the comments after the editorial. They are more balanced than I would have thought.

I can hear the Scooter yelling "Holy Cow!" from the Great Beyond. You might have expected this from The Post, but The Observer? Wow. Satan just reached for his sweater. Something really is happening out there. Nov 6 is gonna be big.

FTA: ''In today’s competitive economy, the country needs competitors, not class-war crybabies.''

Translation: ''It's time to put the adults in charge.''

Just keep praying. It's working! There are still enough good people in this country that God is willing to save us.

I am so tired of hearing that Obama failed or squandered an opportunity. He has not failed, he has accomplished most of what he attempted. The fact that what he has accomplished is not good for the country is irrelevant.

Interesting. It's kinda weird... the Dallas Morning News is totally liberal ... they follow the dem party line on everything. It's been particularly noticeable during the Libya attack and aftermath.

Yet a couple of weeks ago they endorsed Romney on their editorial page.

The endorsements are nice,but I'd prefer honest news reporting.

This is Romney's time. He will help the country get back on its financial feet. Unfortunately on some other issues we may need to keep an eye on him. It's not a slam on him but I know people on the right will be watching.

These lib endorsements represent to me growing cracks in the leftists' armor. They show Romney's message points / plans have the strength to defeat both obama's leftist propaganda and the organs promoting his empty promises.

Yes, of course Obama was lying, but liberals were instantly relieved to recognize that Crowley had his back. A set-up to behold!

I think this is an important endorsement and almost an admission that some in the aiding and abetting Old Media are weary of covering up for the man who plans to erase America the Beautful and its freedom for all.

I too want to see Romney elected. And, would so rather 'fight' him on social issues than fight the devil's man. At least Romney is not against the things of God. He is not of my faith but his center is on love of God and country. We can work with a man like that. The opposite of good is all things Democrat. Praying for mercy of God for our country. We need Him.

I'll take it. Let's hope this is followed by many, many more.

The New York Observer has evidently observed that bankruptcy is an ugly thing.

When Crowleys fly...

#23: you are so right. He succeeded in implementing disastrous policies that belong to him and the Democrats alone.

It's like the constant refrain that Fast and Furious was a "botched" gun operation. Nope, it was carried out exactly as it was meant to.

#6... thank you and Amen.

Agree with #23. What is happeneing to this country is exactly what Obama wants to happen. If he gets a second term, he will finish the job and completely destroy this country. Without the help of the msm covering for him and trying to destroy Romney, Obama wouldn't even be in this race. I pray every day that people open their eyes and vote this evil man out of office this Nov.

Amen #6. I agree completely.

Wow! This is truly stunning! I have a relative who used to work for the NY Observer and she was an extremely rare moderate in a hotbed of liberal wackjobs. Joe Conason anyone? That the Observer would endorse Romney is an astounding admission of just how bad a failure zippy has been for real Americans and for our future.

What really concerns me is what happens when Obamas enforcers do when they realize that simple BS isn't working anymore, and that they will lose in a fair election. This party has abused presidential edicts and administrative power. What will our spineless leaders do if O simply bulls his way through via DOJ lawsuits and presidential declarations and refuses to admit defeat? Who forcibly moves him, his family and his his personal guards? Just think about it. "I did not lose. I will not leave. My SS guard has orders to shoot to kill anyone who dares making me leave."

Let them that have eyes, see. Let them that have ears, listen. It looks like there are some out there that have had their eyes opened and there ears cleaned. Let's all pray that this continues throughout the land. Remember, the truth will set you free.

And let my include my Amen to #6. Beautifully said.

Just sent this link to several "undecided" friends, so thanks OP and Team LDot for posting and Must Read status.

Amen, fellow prayer-warriors... Lord, hear our prayers...

# 22 "Just keep praying. It's working! There are still enough good people in this country that God is willing to save us. "

Yes, I spent the entire debate time in prayer for our country. God is powerful. May He grant us a reprieve from Evil.

Bottom line: the New York Observer endorsed Obama four years ago, and now, they are covering their butts, trying to explain why they did so.

But, this is an important editorial, because the editors take pains to explain why now, the better candidate for growth out of the mire, is Romney.

For those Ldotters not used to wading through liberal marshes, put on your boots, and read the article.

Thank you editors of the New York Observer, for stating the Truth.

NOTE: This is an article you can send to your Liberal friends & family!

a bunch of their leftie writers must be gnashing their teeth.
But Romney gets this endorsement because he is “not an ideologue”, and is “a moderate to the core”. Ouch. These are not attributes I want in Romney, but it’s OK because the newspaper and I interpret the same events differently. What the NYO sees as a good “manager” supporting Wall St. (NYO did not like Obama slamming Wall St.) I do see as ideology – support for capitalism, small government, etc.

If we get 8 years of Romney and 8 years of Ryan, do you think the culture of the country can change for the better and we can become more sensible and realistic? Can we overcome all the schools and colleges left wing brainwashing of our younger people? Will the media, culture and Hollywood change to at least partially center? Can we be America again? Will we defend ourselves from Islamofascism and socialism? Will we wake up? Can we toss the terrorists in our midst out of the country and stop mosques and Islamic centers being built in our cities. What do you think is the biggest danger to our survival?

My...my....another New York newspaper can smell the coffee now.
