Tweet Roundup: Debate Yourself Silly
Picking the best debate tweets is easier than Candy taking lies from a baby.
Awesome to see Obama so engaged & passionate in the way he spoke. Now if only he could fix the other drone problems he has.

Romney is polling extremely well among haters.

Debate Winners, Losers and Binders
Winners
1. AK-47s, which Mitt Romney loves a lot more than other kinds of 47-ers.
2. Jeremy. And whoever loaned Jeremy his suit.
3. The guy who was wearing a Barack Obama mask this evening.
4. Mitt Romney's pension, if he still has any stock in Staples. Binder sales are gonna go through the roof.
5. New York, and especially New Yawk. We finally heard about jawbs.
6. Nassau Community College. What Long Islanders affectionately call the 13th grade got a shout-out.
7. Transcripts. Especially ones published after the Benghazi attacks, reading, "No acts of terror will ever shake the resolve of this great nation…"
Losers
1. The guy who pretended to be Barack Obama in the first debate.
2. The guy who accidentally decided who he was voting for yesterday, like an asshole.
3. The Gallup staffers who thought these audience members were really undecided.
4. CNN closed captioning, displaying "Labia" instead of "Libya." (This actually happened.)
5. Candy Crowley's conservative street cred.
6. Joe Biden, whose thunder was just stolen.
7. Wolf Blitzer, who probably spent the whole night on his hologram deck, seething with jealousy.

Candy Crowley Is in the Tank for Barack Obama
Last week, it was obvious that debate moderator Martha Raddatz was in the tank for Joe Biden and the Obama campaign. It remains to be seen, however, if tonight's moderator–CNN's Candy Crowley–has any biases. It's hard to tell. As far as we know, neither Barack Obama nor Mitt Romney ever attended her wedding.
That said, Ms. Crowley did tip her hand in this New York Times profile, revealing a few details that clearly show she's pulling hard for Barack Obama…
