Was this Obama's Jimmy
Carter moment? President's
woeful debate compared to
1980 TV disaster that
handed Reagan victory

Daily Mail (UK), by Toby Harnden & Hugo Gye

Original Article

Posted By:JoniTx, 10/4/2012 1:29:01 PM

Barack Obama has been savaged over his performance in last night's presidential debate, with one commentator even suggesting that he was less effective than the hapless Jimmy Carter. Even those who have been the President's most enthusiastic cheerleaders in the past lined up to denounce the evening as a 'disaster' for Mr Obama, and worried that Mitt Romney's resounding win would allow him to turn around his struggling campaign. Prominent Obama fans admitted the President as 'off his game', with one even saying: 'I don't know what he was doing out there.'

Obama wasn`t off his game last night. He was just nervous because he knew later that evening he had to satisfy the 1st Lady on the 20th anniversary.....

That's why they went to the best two out of three with debates. They can't risk a knock-out of their guy like Reagan did with Carter in one debate.

For obama, nothing is going to change between now and the final debate. Everything about the last four years have been a disaster.

I cannot wait till they debate foreign policy..... Obama trying to defend that will rival Wylie Coyote and the roadrunner

Dems will be out for blood, and they will pack the audience with rabid leftists who will ask all of the class warfare questions that Obama's Marxist whore advisers have prepared him for. The foreign policy debate will be about how Romney has no experience and is a geek. They will throw out hundreds of distractions in the next four weeks, rumors, innuendo, lies -- anything to divert attention from the Taupe Dope.

The American people handed Reagan the victory. And the whole world was better for it.

Jimmy Carter deserves no credit for Reagan's success.

The pictures show a very astute tactic the Romney team used. The Bamster showed up with just Michelle. The Romneys brought family, including two grandchildren. This was a subtle allusion to the pro-family Republican platform vs. the pro-abortion Democratic one. Romney didn't have to say a thing -- viewers got the point.

Why do people think BHO avoids unscripted questions? He only tip toes into a press conference it the seating is just so and all the questions are prescreened. He has to be very careful to maintain the facade and follow the script Alexrod wrote for him.

Free golf, y´all. The 2013 Masters are headed to a sudden-death playoff between Angel Cabrera and Adam Scott after a phenomenally dramatic 18th hole that saw them end 72 holes of action in Augusta at 8-under each. And we get to see the 18th again, immediately. Per the Masters playoff rules, all the participants in the sudden-death playoff will go back to the 18th and play it again. If Cabrera and Scott post the same score on 18 again, they´ll go to the 10th hole and play it again. Should the two players tie on 10, they´ll return

Just over a week away from the dedication of the George W. Bush Presidential Center, former President George W. Bush and his wife, Laura, received even bigger news: they are now grandparents. The newest member of the Bush family is Margaret Laura “Mila” Hager. The Bushes’ daughter Jenna Bush Hager — wife of Henry Hager — gave birth to the child Saturday at 8:43 p.m. in New York City. Mila was named for her grandmothers, the former president said in a statement. “Laura and I are thrilled to announce the birth of our grandchild,” George W. Bush said.

One of the more bizarre memes propagated by the proabort left about the trial of Kermit Gosnell, who "faces 43 criminal counts, including eight counts of murder in the death of one patient, Karnamaya Monger, and seven newborn infants," is that Fox News has been almost as negligent in covering the story and the trial as the Big Three broadcast networks, and that conservative media in general have also mostly ignored the story. Through Monday evening, April 8, the Media Research Center´s Matt Philbin noted that Gosnell´s trial "has received exactly zero seconds of airtime on the broadcast networks."

Newtown killer Adam Lanza’s mother considered suing Sandy Hook Elementary School after teachers turned a blind eye to beatings from his classmates, a family member claims. The relative, speaking to the Daily News, claimed that mass murderer Lanza was taunted and attacked by fellow students at his childhood alma mater. “Nancy felt fiercely protective of him,” the relative said. “She was convinced the school wasn’t doing enough to protect Adam. It made her irate.” Nancy Lanza — gunned down by her 20-year-son to start his Dec. 14 rampage — even tagged along with Adam to school

Sally Bercow has snubbed an invitation to Margaret Thatcher´s funeral because she doesn´t want to ´be a hypocrite and join in this attempted canonisation of her´. The wife of Commons Speaker John Bercow declined the invitation to Wednesday´s service despite the wives of Ed Miliband, Tony Blair and Gordon Brown all being set to attend. In a statement issued today, she said: ´As Commons Speaker, John will be attending the funeral - and rightly so. But I´m not obliged to participate in my husband´s public life - last time I looked, this was the 21st century!

JEFFERSON CITY — Republican lawmakers´ concerns about new driver´s license procedures are being exacerbated by the state´s unique system for marking concealed weapons endorsements. Missouri appears to be the only state whose license bureaus also issue concealed weapons endorsements in conjunction with driver´s licenses. In Missouri the endorsements are doled out by the sheriff´s office but the permits are printed by the Department of Revenue. Permit holders can choose whether they want to have the endorsement printed on their driver´s license or on a separate non-driving identification card. Of the roughly 178,000 concealed weapon permit holders, 174,450 Missourians choose

MIAMI— Duna Lopez started school in Miami last fall not knowing a single word of English. The 8-year-old girl from Barcelona, Spain, with dark blond hair was placed in the Coral Way Bilingual K-8 Center, the nation´s oldest bilingual school. For half the day, she receives classes in Spanish; it´s English for the rest. During language arts, she gets pulled out with three other new arrivals for extra help on grammar and phonics. After seven months, she´s one of the most active participants in class. "In five months, like that, I learned it," she said. Duna´s success is exceptional, but

Some of Manhattan’s wealthiest neighborhoods are exploding in a wave of violent crime that hearkens back to the bad old days when people feared going out at night, according to NYPD data obtained by The Post. Chelsea, Gramercy Park, TriBeCa, SoHo and Midtown South all posted a frightening rise in rapes in the first three months of 2013 compared with the same period in 2012. Felony assaults in the usually peaceful West Village nearly tripled, the new crime statistics show. Greenwich Village’s 6th Precinct tied the Rockaways’ grimy 100th Precinct for the city’s biggest year-to-date overall

The service, due to take place on Wednesday, is to be attended by 2,300 dignitaries and is expected to be the biggest since the death of the Queen Mother in 2002. The choice of the Charles Wesley composition, reflects the wishes of the former prime minister that the faith passed down to her by her father, Alderman Alf Roberts, should be marked at the service on Wednesday. Other pieces of music include John Bunyan’s 1684 hymn To Be a Pilgrim (He Who Would Valiant Be), the patriotic choice I Vow To Thee My Country and Psalm 84,

A career criminal who stole a truck containing President Obama´s audio equipment was sentenced Thursday to seven years in federal prison. Sentencing guidelines called for a term of about three years, but Eric Brown of Richmond, Va., agreed to the longer sentence to avoid prosecution for 14 similar truck thefts in three localities. However, he could still face charges in Stafford County, which did not join Chesterfield, Hanover and Henrico counties in the agreement. Brown pleaded guilty in January to theft of government property. "The theft of government property is a serious offense,"

Pro golfers, golf writers, and TV commentators are up in arms that Tiger Woods was only given a 2-stroke penalty for his illegal drop on the 15th hole yesterday. Tiger said last night that he dropped his ball two yards behind his previous spot, clearly violating the rule that you must drop "as nearly as possible" to your original spot. Golf people are not happy about it. They say that the new rule is B.S. (or it´s at least being misinterpreted), and Tiger should DQ himself to save the integrity of the game.

On his Friday show, syndicated talk show host Mark Levin said that a Republican congressman is attempting to persuade one of his affiliates to remove his show from the airwaves. Although Levin would not offer the congressman’s name on air, he has been a vocal critic of various members of the House Republican leadership in the past. But Levin called the situation “fascism.” “Well, it has come to my attention that there is a Republican congressman out there who doesn’t like what I’ve been saying,” Levin said. “It has come to my attention that there is a

Few Americans can not answer this question: who is the worst domestic mass murderer in United States’ history? Due to the United States media, most are aware that Timothy McVeigh slaughtered 168 people with a bomb in 1995. Most Americans also know the names of our three most monstrous serial killers: “The Green River Killer” Gary Ridgeway, Ted Bundy, John Wayne Gacy. The U.S. media is again responsible for the general awareness of these men; these stories deserved — and received — national attention due to our common interest in personal safety, the rule of law

In Philadelphia, at a human abattoir on Lancaster Avenue, is where it ends, not where it starts. It starts with the perversion of language. It starts when the icons of a dissipated culture reduce a baby to a “fetus.” From there, Yeats’s blood-dimmed tide rolls rapidly in. Before long, a baby is not a person but a punishment, as President Barack Obama framed the matter in his familiar off-the-cuff iciness. Of course, to describe newborn children in their boundless possibilities and wonder would be to acknowledge, foremost, their humanity. That is why, instead, abortion enthusiasts must grope for words

Sen. Jay Rockefeller (D-WV), one of the architects of the Affordable Care Act, said on Tuesday that the healthcare law, set to go into full effect in less than eight months, is “probably the most complex piece of legislation ever passed by the United States Congress” and “is just beyond comprehension.” Rockefeller said he is concerned that early missteps with implementing the healthcare overhaul may cascade into confusion and chaos. The law, said Rockefeller, is “so complicated and if it isn’t done right the first time, it will just simply get worse.” Rockefeller’s consternation echoes comments made earlier this

Here is something I don’t understand: liberals are often revealed as vile, vulgar hatemongers–not all of them, of course, but far too many–yet they never seem to pay a penalty at the polls. Why is that? Margaret Thatcher’s death has been the latest occasion for the Left to show its true stripes. All across the U.K., there have been demonstrations–vulgar at best, and violent at worst. In Bristol, lefties celebrating a Thatcher “death street party” started fires, destroyed property and battled police: This evening in Trafalgar Square, liberals have turned out for a long-planned celebration of Thatcher’s death:

They say they were just doing what the boss trained them to do. But eight former employees of a run-down West Philadelphia abortion clinic now face prison time for the work they did for Dr. Kermit Gosnell. Three have pleaded guilty to third-degree murder. And Gosnell, 72, is on trial in the deaths of a patient and seven babies allegedly born alive. In testimony at the capital murder trial this past month, an unlicensed doctor and untrained aides described long, chaotic days at the clinic. They said they performed grueling, often gruesome work for little more than minimum wage,

With President Obama, there’s always a catch. In the 2014 budget he announced last week, Obama proposed a more accurate way of calculating the inflation rate for annual cost-of-living increases in Social Security. It’s a technical change in pursuit of honesty and good government. And if adopted, it would cause benefits to grow more slowly, though almost imperceptibly so. Republican leaders in Congress ought to be delighted since they had “championed”—Obama’s word—the idea in the first place. Then came the catch. The president’s price for adopting this gentle reform was hundreds of billions in new tax increases.

TALLAHASSEE - Picture this: You´re in the left lane of the interstate, driving a little below the speed limit, when some guy zips up behind you and swerves past you on the right. Then you notice the blue lights flashing. You´re savoring the satisfaction of seeing a trooper actually nab an aggressive driver — until you realize it´s you he´s pulling over. This could happen, if not very often, under a major transportation package expected to be taken up in the Senate Appropriations Committee next week. Introduced by Sen.
