Debate #3 Live-Blogging #4

9:54 PM: Much like in Debate #1 with President Obama, Mitt has the look of someone who desperately doesn’t want to be up on that stage.

10:00 PM: It’s like Romney needs a firmware upgrade. Just talking points spewing forth. A litany. Words. A mess.

10:01 PM: “You’ve been all over the map.”

10:02 PM: This is getting brutal.

10:02 PM: “It was worth moving heaven and earth to get him.”

10:03 PM: Obama managed to bring the bin Laden segment at the end of a long narrative. Real impact.

10:03 PM: Eeesh, now even Schiefer is slapping Mitt around.

10:05 PM: I’m not sure Obama could have dropped the OBL bomb at more of a crescendo moment.

10:05 PM: Mitt’s so punch drunk at the moment he apparently thinks he’s signed on as President Obama’s State Department spokesman. Who’s he arguing against with Pakistan?

10:07 PM: Shorter Mitt: Please get me the f*ck off this stage!?!!?
