> Hardly. Romney was stately, assertive and forceful. He did not disrespect Obama, nor did he interrupt him or laugh at him. No one criticized him for being rude.
Yes. That amazed me. He smirked throughout, he talked over the moderator, and he refused to actually answer the questions instead running on at high speed on his talking points which I thought showed a lack of respect for all of us. I really felt like I was watching a school yard performance that was going to end any minute with a "your mama" comment and that the commentators were the other schoolkids egging him on in the hopes of seeing a fight.
It made me very glad he was not my candidate. I really do believe the issues are too important to let personal feelings for or against a candidate decide them but I would have found it painful to have to pull a lever for him in November.
