Obama orchestrates Romney coup in second debate

President Barak Obama launched an aggressive attack on his opponent, Gov. Mitt Romney in the second Presidential Debate of the 2012 election season on Oct. 17.
 
"The President was gritty, emboldened with facts and accusations, closed fisted, stern, solid and distinct, and that was just in the dressing room before he debate," said an Obama debate coach.
 
Unlike the first debate, the President was using all of his senses to demonstrate his positions while confronting Romney in the Town Hall format.
 
"This is the Obama we longed to see in the first debate," said an Obama supporter whose submitted question for the format was rejected because it dropped an "F-bomb" when relating to Romney. "He was ------- awesome this time around."
 
Romney was apparently ready for the more aggressive Obama to appear. One stagehand swore he saw a bulge in Romney’s suit jacket, possibly indicating he was carrying either a handgun or a metallic Mormon-style crucifix with a point.
 
Obama defended all of the programs he instituted since becoming "The Great Half-White Hope" after the 2008 election. Aside from laughter in the press booth generated by Fox talk-deacon Sean Hannity, most in attendance listened to the President with rapt attention.
 
Except Romney. The governor continually leaned on the poor state of today's economy to drive the point home that no matter what Obama said, "We cannot afford another four years of the President's policies."
 
Instant polls gave Obama the win on points. Instant oatmeal gave the audience breakfast the following morning.
 
"We won, no matter what they say," said Republican strategist Karl Rove, often called the architect of George W. Bush's successful two-term victories. "The President is wrong no matter what he tells you about policies."
 
Most Conservatives admitted that the President could have said nothing to change their votes. Former New York Gov. George Pataki said he loved everything Romney said at the debate and also liked his suit and haircut better than those of Obama, though Pataki did admit that there was no way the President could have flowing hair that would even compete with the hair of Romney.
 
"Oh sure, Obama won," said a Conservative in the crowd who had two wallet photos of Fox-pollster Frank Luntz, "but this is not about winning debates unless you look at the first debate that Romney won."
 
After the debate, Democrats swarmed the Spin Room, displaying their big "O" tattoos, most having been drawn on private body parts.
 
One Obama surrogate in the room said, "We won hands down and Romney realizes now that all of these years he spent trying to become the president have been wasted."
 
Another surrogate in the room said, "I heard that fifty percent of all the early voters that voted for Romney are demanding their votes be changed to support the President. I heard that."
 
Post-debate polls in the swing states indicated that Benny Goodman’s orchestra was more popular than that of Glenn Miller.
 
All that was heard from from the Romney camp immediately after the debate were the words "let's get out of here" and in a matter of moments the governor and his surrogates were gone from the premises. Later, a spokesperson from the Romney camp said, "We just don't like that neighborhood, so we left quickly" referring to the Hempstean, New York area where the debate took place.
