Rossikk: What do they mean by who ''won'' the debate? It's not clear cut what exactly the criteria is for ''winning'' is. Is it the person that speaks the fastest, or is the rudest person on stage or the one that tells lies the best?

Both men made their points and showed their differences. One was more aggressive and loud than the other. If that means he ''won'', then the entire essence of the debate is defeated.

You dull pass ice-fish... I said 'if',or did you miss it.. Why didn't you use your so-called computer brain to understand my post?..

Billyonaire: I will love Romney to win Obama in the election. Obama hasnt visited Nigeria or done anything to warrant my support for him anymore. Blackman or no Blackman. Its permanent interests for me, am not interested in race, culture or sentiments. Am all for interest.

ballabriggs: To move the West from the recession, the cost of labour must be critically reviewed. Fact is, the West cannot simply compete with the East Asians with very stringent employment terms and laws

Has Obama got the balls? Has Romney got the balls?

They seem scared of telling the people the truth.

amosy007:

ballabriggs:

Rate this brain

I overheard Tinibu calling Mimiko "an ingrate".

As if i 've got your time.
ignored.

Billyonaire: He doesn't have to come to Nigeria, but Obama's action or inaction and lack of love, interest and support for Nigeria is a betrayal to me personally. I really want to see him lose, I really can not forgive him for not showing love to the Most Populous Black Nation. Its a personal insult to me if you ask.

greaterlove: Did romney really win this round?, he did most of the talking but no specifics. my guess is most of the things he spoke about in this debate will still be used against him, and the romney we know will still make a blunder before the next debate. Obama kept his cool, never mentioning the 47%, the bain capital, romney stand on women health, paul ryan's budget etc, obama never mentioned any of romney's flip flops and was not interested in playing to the gallery. you dont win the war by just winning a battle, the race is still on. for those who think obama cant perform without a teleprompter, its like you guys have not seen him speak before he became president, and on the question of what has he done for blacks? he has done more than any president by showing all blacks that they can rise to whatever level they aspire to get to, and his message to african leaders has always been rise up and lead your people.

No offence to other posters but I think greaterlove really hit the nail on the head.
It's never easy to go into a debate being the incumbent and attack your opponent when the economy is pretty bad. The Obama administration took on a terrible recession which was brought about by the same republicans. But Obama never blamed the past administration and that shows you he means business and he isn't promising an easy way out unlike Romney.. Romney is a typical 'devil' who promises you the best of the best but will never tell you what you have to sacrifice until you sign your life over then you start seeing him in 3D.
Romney will say anything to win, imagine him talkin about coal when the world is going green and worrying about global warming.
And as for the guy that said he's mad cos Obama didn't visit Nigeria.visit you for what o, when he has bigger fishes to fly. And you think Romney wouldn't have labelled Nigeria a terrorist nation when the case of the underwear bomber ( mutallab) happened?? Please stop being sentimental and if you can't discuss facts ( economy, governance, healthcare, jobs, foreign policy and more ) then wait till 2015 I'm sure u''ll put your sentimental abilities into good use then.

CyberG: For those who are just hearing about Romney's positions today, UNDERSTAND that he just changed those positions to appear as "moderate". This guy NEVER had these positions to come through his party primaries while debating among his conservative co-aspirants and appealing to their republican "base". However, he has SHIFTED so much and close to Obama's position on many issues, even the analysts and citizens noticed that and commented after the debate. BOTTOMLINE: Romney will say and do anything NOW to get elected! So rightly, Obama asked: Are these plans you talk about SO GOOD that you are unable to tell Americans what EXACTLY they are? Hope none of you is fooled by the flip-flopping, 47% dissing Romney. The comments he made in private are a VERY accurate portrayal of his real thought towards the people since he thought the public would NEVER see or hear it. Today, he knows people are listening and had to say anything to deceive you.

farydah: Sadly, Romney
If na Naija, i for don dey suspect Romney of juju...lolzzz
As in, Obama seemed too outta character

means: It beats my imagination that all the foreign media are saying Mitt won the debate. Naturally, as the person who wants to unseat the incumbent, Romney was expected to attack the Obama policies which he did. Did you guys expect the seating president to attack Romney? No. He needed to defend his policies and calmly pointed out how he will continue with those policies. The poll on who won the debate hasn't changed the polls rating in the swing states that will decided this election. The Democrats are not panicking. People would have been disappointed if the President had gone on the offensive. Romney hasn't even explained the specifics on how he intends to create the 12million jobs yet. Just my take anyway.

afam4eva:
How does this correlate with the debate? Are you implying that only leaders know how to debate?

Freiburger:
Stop dissing people you dont know and never met. Not every Nigerian is silly like yourself and Tinubu.
