Last night's first Presidential Debate between Governor Mitt Romney and President Barack Obama at the University of Denver, was seen by an estimated 58 million people according to the Neilsen Ratings, in the preliminary report they released today. Romney's winning of the Debate propelled in part by Obama's unwillingness to assert himself in responding to his challenger's bold and feisty moderation of his positions, while attacking the incumbent's record, is enigmatic and inexplicable, other than the possibility the President decided on a strategy not to aggressively challenge Romney, to stay above the fray and preserve his likeability. Fact checks today are discovering holes in the veracity of statements made by Governor Romney last night, which may impact the final effectiveness of his overall first Debate performance. Romney followed up today making a victory lap appearance at the Colorado C-PAC Conference before proceeding to Virginia and Florida, to resume on the countdown campaign trail. A much more animated Obama spoke at a rally in Denver this morning before heading to Ohio, Virginia, and Florida, to continue his campaign push. The next Obama-Romney Debate on Tuesday October 16th, is in a Town Hall Meeting format. It will almost certainly be an extremely ramped up exchange, as both Romney and Obama will most likely be revved up to put their views before the audience and one another, while interacting with those in attendance. Next up in this series of four - 3 Presidential; 1 Vice Presidential; Debates - is the Vice Presidential Debate between the Democratic incumbent Joe Biden, and the Republican nominee Paul Ryan, Thursday night October 11th, from Center University in Danville, Kentucky............Fr.
