I watched most of the first of three Presidential debates tonight with friends over beers and pizza. We were a little dismayed that the consensus among the political pundits (and a poll conducted by CNN) was that Romney ‘won’ the debate, even though there were no obvious zingers or knock-out punches. CNN summed it up in one line as ‘The Republican candidate says the president’s vision is one of big government, while Obama challenged his rival’s plans as unworkable’.
