Only Colorado showed a negligible move with a .7 shift toward Romney.

Once again, this shows that just talking down and being rude to your opponent, even if it appears you "win" the debate, doesn't necesarrily buy votes. Dems just wanted to revenge for the Romney dominance. They got it, but it doesn't appear to have done anything other than make them feel better about themselves and the candidate. But then, Democrats are more interested in "feeling good" than real results, so this is probably good enough, I guess?
And Republicans are content to sit around like sheep while their candidate fills them full of crap and tells everybody else, "After the election I'll tell you what I plan to do. Don't worry. It'll be great!"

After all, he spent years selling bull**** at Bain. Why stop now?
