Mitt Romney invokes a story involving a baby.

Romney bored that unemployed person to death. #MockTheVote #Debates

9:11

Obama talks about specific tax cut numbers and the moderator sounds old and confused.

9:13

Mitt Romney: “I like coal.”

Me too, as long as I’m not getting trapped in a Chilean mine, mining it.

9:20

My Internet stream keeps buffering and I don’t care, because everyone is so boring.

9:23 

Boring point-in-case, Obama just talked about “math.”

@indecision

Good thing they keep talking about math. Nothing gets America fired up more than math.

This campaign to re-elect Bill Clinton is going really well.#debates

I think Obama’s boring is rubbing off on Romney. R-Money just mentioned “leverage limits.”

9:55

What if Jim Lehrer had a heart attack right now? His resuscitation could be funded by viewers like you!

9:57

Newsflash! Nobody has actually read Dodd-Frank.

Okay, so I think this show needs a whacky neighbor to really spice things up. Maybe a talking baby, or a dog. OMG MAKE THIS FAMILY GUY!

@wilw Pot-smoking Koala? It could be American Dad.

Obama should just curl up in the fetal position and scream health care statistics for the rest of the debate.

Romney says he didn’t raise taxes to pay for Romneycare. That’s because it was subsidized heavily by the federal gov’t

When can we talk about vaginas and anal sex? #debates #priorities

Man, I wish Big Bird was moderating this debate. Big Bird or a corpse would be doing a better job at creating structure than this guy.

…um…I…

10:25

There’s bars out there serving drinks called “zingers” right now, right?

10:33

Well, my dream of Obama screaming, “You tied your dog to a car!” have been crushed.

Jesus tap dancing Christ! I’d rather hear about bitches, zombies, the apocalypse, sandwiches or anal before any more political tweets. Fuck!
