Presidential Debate Open Thread. Get ready to R-U-MMMBLE!!! Update!

"Let me just say right now, I got this."

I am sure I don't have to tell all of you that after the last debate between the President and Romney, where the President was shocked by the completely fact free debating style of his opponent, that THIS debate has taken on an incredible amount of significance.

It would seem to me that the town hall format for tonight's debate favors the President, but Romney has demonstrated himself to be an incredible opportunist who will take advantage of any chance to change his stated positions to fit the expectations of the crowd. Essentially if left unrestrained by the kind of fact checking provided by Joe Biden during the VP debate, Romeny will present himself as all things to all people.

So the President is going to have to be not only on HIS game, but nailing Romney down on his positions as well. Unless of course moderator Candy Crowley is willing to take a stand for truth and refuse to let Mitt the Twit bullshit his way through yet another piece of political performance art.

I will, as usual, be tweeting my impressions during the debate which you all can check here. I will also try and keep up with the comments here so that you can share your thoughts and feelings as well.

While we are waiting I thought I would share with you this picture of a beaming Michelle Obama, who sent in her absentee ballot yesterday.

The President did as well, which I understand is the FIRST time that a sitting President of the United States has ever taken the opportunity to vote early. Something by the way that I think we ALL should take advantage of just as soon as early voting starts in our area.

So get your popcorn out kids, and the beverage of your choice, and let's get ready to witness the rematch of the century. Let's just hope that this time the Champ is ready to go all Mike Tyson on Romney's ass if he starts using cheap shots or low blows.

Update: The moment Obama won the debate:
