Yeah, the freefall of Obama in the 538 forecast has me borderline frantic. How could that stupid fucking debate have mattered this much?

I just call him 'evil', but this is a little more generous
From the beginning of his run for the Republican nomination, Mr. Romney has offered to transfigure himself into any shape desired by an audience in order to achieve power.

"From the beginning, unfortunately, because this is not our tradition, [there's been] an effort by some to turn this into a partisan fight," he said during a White House briefing. "And that’s a shame when we're talking about brave men and women in our diplomatic service who serve Democrats and Republicans, who represent the United States of American people, and America's interests abroad, often in very danergous parts of the world."

Carney reinforced Vice President Joe Biden's assertion during Thursday's debate that neither Biden nor the president was informed about requests for additional security in Benghazi ahead of the attack on Sept. 11. And he said decisions about security levels there -- and at thousands of other U.S. missions around the world -- are "appropriately" made by security professionals at the State Department.

"It is certainly not the case that the assignment of security personnel at diplomatic facilities is made here at the White House, nor should it be," Carney said.
"What is the case is that the president sets his priorities in his budgets, and the president has set levels of funding for diplomatic security in his budgets that have been routinely slashed by Republicans, especially in the House," he said in a not-so-veiled dig at Paul Ryan. "So I find it rich that charges are made about concern over diplomatic security by those who routinely slash funding for diplomatic security in order to pay for tax cuts."

We need a President who will take responsibility for problems like Libya -- someone like Mitt Romney, who took responsibility for all those Bain firings while he was President, CEO & sole shareholder and still reaping the profits. What's that you say? He's not responsible for those actions after he left for the Olympics because he "retired retroactively?"

Oh. OK.

Still at around 60% chance that Obama wins and even better chance that dems keep the senate. Plus I think Obama will shift the mo back in his favor come Tuesday.

Free fall has stopped! Obama gained a point today on 538. Also leading in one Arizona poll.
