Alright — great liveblog tonight! I think we all can agree that Bob Schieffer is the REAL winner tonight. Don’t forget to get out and vote in just two weeks! Thanks again for tuning in!
xox
Thanks for listening, y’all- 2 weeks!
Agreed. I think it was, out of all of the debates, the least enthralling. However, A+ debate. I think Romney will will Miss Universe — second runner up.
This was good, then very boring, then good, and I hope Beyonce was watching and thinking about cookies as much as I was. #Obama2012 #SnacksPlatform
WOOF. This is the end of the debate people — Katie, your closing statements. Go.
WE ALL LOVE TEACHERS!!!!!!!!!!!
“I love teachers, but gotdamn I won’t hire ‘em!”
“You did not say that you would provide government health!” – Obama
“I LIKE CAWRS” is not a stance on anything.
Obama is on his rebuttal game tonight. A+.
Democrats, come get your people. Kerry’s wild’n out.
OH MY GOD DO YOU MAKE ME JOBS OR NOT, ROMBOT?
STOP USING TUMULT.
Beyonce and Blue Basking in Bayonet Banter.
I wonder if Beyonce is watching…
DRONEGATE 2012
Is it really? Not that I don’t find foreign policy interesting. I just find it extremely fucking boring.
There have been zero mention of gay rights, I don’t think. Though, this is technically “the foreign policy” debate…like these dudes follow ANY sort of rules anyway.
Have we heard about gay rights issues yet in ANY of these debates? I feel like both candidates have been shying away from this.
“You are not too old for me to slap you in your mouth” – Bob Schieffer
“Those decisions are not always popular/poll tested…but I look at what we need to get done to keep the American people safe…”
“It was worth moving Heaven & Earth to get him” – Obama on Bin Laden killing.
“The problem is, Mitt, U R THE WORST”
Obama, I love you, BUT YOU TALK SO SLOOOOOOW.
“This is not a game of Battleship.” – Obama
Someone please photoshop Obama literally jumping over Israel.
I wish I could favorite that entire post!!!!
“I DRIVE A DODGE STRATUS! I’M IMPORTANT! I HAD THE SMARTEST 4th GRADERS” – Mitt Romney.
Wow — how have we not discussed that we’re now an hour into this and major social issues haven’t been discussed?! WE’VE BEEN ON FOREIGN POLICY FOR AN HOUR.
UPDATE: In foreign policy, Romney would do pretty much everything Obama has done, only worse/stupider.
Oh my god, this just in: Lindsay Lohan used all of the exclamation points forever, we’re all out now.
Contender for comment/tweet of the night/election/century.
Obama looks like he’s 40 seconds away from letting out an obnoxious yawn and I FEEL THAT.
“I’m Mitt Romeny and I have fifteen million five point plans!”
“A nuclear Iran is a threat to our national security…”
“WE’VE VISITED THE WEBSITE QUITE A BIT — IT STILL DOESN’T WORK.” – Obama #sassy
“We have these things called airplanes…” TOO SASSY?
Okay so this is all the same shit from the last debate — is this a rerun!? I mean, that’s what Boca Raton is known for, right?
“I went to the Olympics! My wife took her horse!”
Romney looking like a smug contestant during final Jeopardy right now.
I mean, do people really need to ask for money now? Like…I’m not ASKING for dolla bill$, but I’ll take ‘em.
“Shhh while I’m lying, Obama.” – Mitt Romney
Also, to backtrack- if there’s one thing Mitt Romney knows, it’s Latinos.

Not sure how this kind of spending leads to a balanced budget…
DRINK DRINK — HERE’S THE FIRST MENTION OF 5 PT. PLAN.
SLAM ON CHENEY.
“You can’t have kids coming out of college who can’t find a job.” touche, Mitt.
UUUUGH I’ve seen this debate already and it’s called Miss Congeniality- WHERE’S BENJAMIN BRATT.
Yeah, you can definitely tell that. Which is interesting/what most undecided voters are interested in.
OH SNAP- as my cousin pointed out, Mitt Romney is tryin’ to sneak in some bi-partisan language with that red AND blue tie. #SYMBOLISM
This “peaceful planet” statement is Romney’s Miss Universe speech bit.
“For America to be successful in these regions, we’re going to have to do some things here at home…”
HAHAHAH T. SO SO T.
T or F: Mitt Romney is the dude from the Touch of Gray box? 
“We’re doing exactly what we should be doing to try to promote a modern Syrian leadership …. that’s the kind of leadership we’ve shown/will continue to show.”
Obama: “For us to get more entangled in Syria is a really serious step.”
BOOM.
I’m sorry, but no one in Boca cares about Syria. Let’s be honest.
Also, apologies to anyone who decided they wanted to read this live blog for any real political commentary. This is for GIFs and making fun of Mitt Romney’s hair.
Interesting that the current administration isn’t willing to do in Syria what they did in Libya — guessing it’s because of what happened in Libya.
OH NO! HE STOLE THE NUMBER FIVE!
CLEAR EYES, FULL HEARTS!! #FNL
Romney, you are no Ben Stein. #ClearEyes
I wish Obama was sitting up a little straighter but I’m dying at his crouching face omg
LOLOLOL “attacking me isn’t not an agenda” Please stop. Stop. Stop.
Oh, shit. Was that a stab at Romney’s age? “YOU’RE STUCK IN THE 1980S, MITT.”
How many times are we guessing that Romney mentions his five point plan? And, similarly, how many shots do we take when he does?
Right? I can’t take anything Mitt says seriously- especially because his skin looks like it’d pick up newsprint like some sorta silly putty business.
Okay, hold on. Are we seriously belittling the Bin Laden killing?
Yes, please, segue from “humorous event” into the terrorist attack.
Omfg, there’s a university at Boca Raton? LOL
How’d all these olds stay up for this? It’s BEDTIME in Florida.
Who’s American flag pin is bigger tonight? THE WORLD WANTS TO KNOW.
DEF. FORESHADOWING.
Oooh Michelle already had her bitch face on! SHE READY.
There are two dogs fighting outside my apartment- FORESHADOWING?!
Here we go
Esp. if it’s to “Your Heart Is A Muscle” & it’s with Jill.
Would pay lots of money to see Joe Biden perform a dance routine to C. Rae Jeps, FYI.
I’ve got a glass of wine and a cat on my shoulder! SO READY.
Alex, are you ready for this? I’ve got my box o’ Wheat Thins at the ready…
Helloooo, world!
testing testing testing!
Cool job mixing up Iraq and Iran, bro. Because you KNOW he still doesn’t really “know the difference.”
Bahaha, this was fantastic.
