Romney looked presidential. He looked like the incumbent.
Obama was small and petty with his pre-written zingers ("the 80s called and want their foreign policy back", really Mr. President? What are you, 15?).
Though folks like me would have enjoyed watching Romney drill Obama on his repeated failures, he chose to pass. People already know anyway, and this is going to be decided on three economy anyway.
Women and independents were likely reassured with his calmness since he's going to be the new guy next to the button.
Last night changed nothing, which suited Romney just fine.
Romney sewed it up last night as long as he doesn't go on a bender in the next two weeks.
Agreed. And many saw in their President a child, when he responded to a very important question about the Navy:
Obama -- “You mentioned the Navy, for example, and that we have fewer ships than we did in 1916. Well, Governor, we also have fewer horses and bayonets, because the nature of our military’s changed. We have these things called aircraft carriers, where planes land on them. We have these ships that go underwater, nuclear submarines.”
