[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you think Obama win you supported him already. [/quote]

Obviously you wrote this a half hour before the end, but your perception does not match the polls.  Channel 9 polled 500 uncommitted voters after the debate and 37% felt Obama won, 30 percent felt that Romney won and 33% called it a tie.[/quote]

To really make a difference, Obama needed to not only win the debate but win big.  33% thinking it was tied is not a good number for the President.  What that means is that Romney had a strong showing and what will be more important to track in these next few days is how Romney continues to do with indpenedents and women.  [/quote]

No, there you're wrong.  Right now, Obama is leading significantly in electoral votes.  There are only a few uncommitted key states or close to call states.  Obama needs to win only about 1/3 of the key states and hold onto his leads in the remaining states.  Romney needs to win much more than 30% of the uncommitted vote, more like 65% of the uncommitted votes to have any chance and he really isn't making that kind of headway.  He needs to convince some of the leaning states to swing to the right and convince almost all of the uncommittee battleground states and he just isn't making that kind of headway.  So while he may have had some positive bounce from the two debates, he's making nowhere near enough to slide enough electoral votes.  At this point, consolidating already conservative states does nothing for him and that's pretty much all he's achieved.  He's making relatively little headway where it matters.[/quote]
