the david nachman show david dot com welcome to the show how the everyone
watching live from the we survived but he will survive obama if the page and
the i love it when i wake up in the morning and brocco bomber is
baseball pay track of both of those
yesterday was debate number one presidential debate that number one we
have so much to say about it i did get a picture on twitter just before the start
of the debate from trevor james
who had a data package a teacher he was ready to debate
in his david package that he should have to say
does this kind of a little bit like me
yet there seems to be somewhat of a resemblance there but anyway trevor
sending in this picture
ready to go
for the debate with his uh... dated back and show t-shirt
here's my general dot on this debate
i was keeping track
of this on two fronts question by question i was going on who want on
style and presentation
and who won on substance
if we had all those up matt romney
did very well in yesterday's debate on style
on substance president all bomber told way less lies and he was much more in
line with the reality of the situation now the problem is that doesn't really
matter if you see a transcript is the only
debate people absorbed was through reading a transcript of it
mitt romney's answers and flip-flopping would have been completely
unintelligible
when president obama would have absolutely dominated that debate
as we know and as we've known since uh... john f_ kennedy debated
uh... way back when in that incredible first television debate uh... modern
television debate
uh... it's not just about what you would look like i a transcript of mit romney
did do well as far as that goes now today as expected we're seeing the right
wingers say that mit romney did incredibly well
and i'd predict it will probably see a one to two point bump for mit romney in
in some polls now the question is
how many and of undecided voters are there really an ohio for example we were
talking about
obama's already pulling more than fifty percent so even if romney gets all the
undecideds
he actually needs to get people that were had were already decided on
president obama
switch their votes and that romney nothing really happened in my opinion
that would get someone to make that change
no you're right he here is way more enthusiastic end animated
and um... all's completely different person from when he was giving his his
speeches no question about it and the other thing also let's talk about before
we get into the specifics before matt of the debate this format was terrible
and jim lehrer was not a good moderator on a number different fronts do you guys
agree
hundred-percent
number one the format of the debate
essentially allowed and foster deciding a talking point in a vacuum and not
really pointing out from president obama even though for reasons will get into he
didn't seem to want to point out the incompetence and flip-flopping from
romley on every single issue
jim lehrer tried let's be honest jim lehrer tried number one to be remotely
in control of the debate
but number two to get them to address each other during the first question
during that first question about jobs i would you create jobs
jim lehrer said
respond directly to what he said i think he said it to a bomb or maybe seven
sarami and they didn't and this happened in two thousand eight we went in
expecting fireworks
they barely talk to each other
obama and mccain in two thousand eight same thing here it seems to be a
strategy it really seems to be the strategy now that being said
the questions were not good
ladies and general
a lot of jim layers questions were what are the differences between the two of
you
it's an open-ended question let's get some specific questions here
to make it more obvious that there's no answer being given
if you say what are the differences
it's chill weezy to just say talking points and talk about whatever you want
i've noted not gonna answer jim
but at least ask a more specific question are they did do the job
he had no control over the the the the debate either
yet he didn't really yast even one specific question he would say
let's talk about that this topic now you can start and one of the differences
between the two of you on this very broad topic bright and the only other
thing he would say is respond to that
it was not good awful the other thing i was actually looking forward to the
split screen that we got because i liked looking at what how weak and it was
reacting when the other was talking a president obama did look
board irritated in many of the cases when mitt romney was talking
may romney
when president obama stalking had that vapid cycle paprika look on his face
that he seems to go to
anytime you have to listen to someone else pecan it on your birthday
you didn't like the side by side
i didn't like the side by side uh... when i saw a clip of the debate of the
same thing that i had seen before in split screen
using the needle before being shot that was on obama all pummel looks a lot less
board and a lot less uncomfortable
then it seemed in the split screen in the closeups though uh... so does that
work for more than you might get you think that this was screen actually
heard of bob
yes of those military-like he said ronnie had this very bizarre look on his
face like he was salivating and just like eating everything up but it was
very bizarre
as far as a nurse and then we'll get into the contacts for singers
all the singers we were expecting to hear there was nothing the one that
would even be remotely close of mit romney saying to president obama listen
you're entitled to your own plane
and your own home but not your own fact it fell flat kind of a non factor when
everything is required
we sunup
yeah there is only one singer and that was directed jim lehrer ringo promise
and i have five seconds before your directed which i don't think was his
best moment yeah
