WASHINGTON -- Television viewers' snap judgments of the first presidential debate favored Mitt Romney, according to two "instant reaction" polls and a focus group conducted during and immediately after the candidates met in Denver.

CBS News, which as in past elections and presidential addresses used the GfK's KnowledgePanel representative Internet panel to interview 523 uncommitted voters who watched the debate (with a reported margin of error of +/- 4 percent). Its sample included voters who were either totally undecided before the debate or who were leaning to a candidate, but said they may still change their minds.

Respondents were unambiguous about who won. By a 46 percent to 22 percent margin, the poll's uncommitted voters said they thought Romney won. After the debate, 56 percent said they had a better opinion of Romney, 11 percent had a worse opinion and 32 percent reported their opinion was unchanged. (continues in text)

He did "win" ... he gave a good performance. Obama was far too calm. I liked the substance of what Obama had to say better than Romney, obviously, but Romney made his points better. There are two more to go, though.

Even CNN admitted he won. Obama was that bad

[Penny Lane 8,159]

Yes, it's amazing some news sources can actually admit when "their" candidate falters. If only they all did that.

It's over for Obama. He sucks at lying.

Yeah he sucks at basic economics too..... in fact even his "arab Spring" foreign policy is unraveling by the day and then there is his Justice Dept. arming militarized drug gangs in mexico. He also appears to suck at Picking "green Companies" to give billions too, not only do many not advance our Green Energy future, they seem to get the free money and then go out of business.

Obama also sucks at putting people to work, there are less people at work than when he tool office.

NOw he is good at Food Stamps.
