Please review video of Mitt Romney's closing statement and notice how vociferously he is blinking. Nonstop. The whole time.

Inner monologue must have been intense to cause that, but seems like a Poker tell. Lies lies lies yeah. He doesn't believe what he's saying when it comes out of his mouth, and it's a dead give away.
I'm sorry, everyone who keeps saying he came off as the winner might be measuring how much he got away without having his etch-a-sketch moments questioned when he flip flopped on several big issues such as health care and taxes.
Romney lost tonight. Maybe not from a debate points perspective, but his shifty, smirky presentation only reinforced the negative perceptions people already have of him. Not gonna win.
Although his blinky McBlinkerson routine of Romney was not my highlight of the night. That was Jim Lehrer rolling his eyes at Romney when he Romney kept interrupting him like the snot nosed rich kid who is always going to say what he wants to say, and the teacher feels like he had to let them have their say because his parents are rich donors to the school. Schoolyard bully again.
