The 2012 Presidential debates and the Fallout.

[MsRowdyRedhead]

Here’s a collection of the best of the best Twitter comments I saw tonight regarding the history making debate between Gov. Mitt Romney and President Obama.

Dennis Miller (@DennisMillerDMZ): Obama is being owned, refinanced and owned again!

Rich Lowry (@RichLowry): It must irritate Obama so much being talked at this way – - direct, forceful, detailed.

Mark Hemingway (@Heminator): That wasn’t a debate so much as Romney just took Obama for a cross-country drive strapped to the roof of his car.

Peter Hamby (@PeterHambyCNN): CNN post-debate poll: 61% said Obama did worse than expected. 82% said Romney did better than expected.

Mike Murphy (@murphymike): America is seeing super competent Massachusetts Mitt now, most, for first time.

Karl Rove (@KarlRove): Keen observer says Obama tonight: charmless. Smart insight.

Larry Sabato (@LarrySabato): Well, that should take care of any D overconfidence about the election.

Jon Wagner (@jonfw2): Biggest difference: Romney loves this, Obama doesn’t.

Dick Morris (@DickMorrisTweet): Obama trips all over himself. Good explanation by Romney of his general principles. Obama never looks at Romney.

S.E. Cupp (@secupp): Obama’s performance was so bad, I’m starting to think it must be some kind of strategy.

Byron York (@ByronYork): For months, Republicans have dreaded the moment in debates when Obama came back at Romney over Mass health care…

Glenn Beck (@glennbeck): How appropriate Stephanie Cutter is wearing black for the campaign’s funeral.

Jonah Goldberg (@JonahNRO): Wow. It turns out Mitt Romney really wants to be president after all.

Glenn Beck (@glennbeck): Romney has stopped boxing and has now moved to MMA

Michael Moore (@MMFlint): This is what happens when u pick John Kerry as your debate coach.

Erick Erickson (@EWErickson): Who knew Romney’s October surprise would be mopping the floor in Denver with the President?

Bill Maher (@billmaher): Obama made a lot of great points tonight. Unfortunately, most of them were for Romney.

Bill Maher (@billmaher): i must say, of all the Romneys i’ve seen, this Debate Romney is my favorite.

Michelle Malkin (@michellemalkin): My quick debate wrap-up: Romney took control.

Jason Hart (@jasonahart): Obama did *so badly* MSNBC is actually saying some things that make sense. It’s like the earth has been knocked off its axis.

Mark R. Levin (@marklevinshow): Romney won the debate, hands down.

Dennis Miller (@DennisMillerDMZ): Obama better hope a Kicked (backside) is covered under Obamacare.

Hugh Hewitt (@hughhewitt): Memo to young GOPers: Savor the moment. You will likely never experience so comprehensive a debate win again.

Mediaite (@mediaite): Chris Matthews’ Epic Meltdown Over Obama Performance: ‘What Was He Doing Tonight?’

Joe Scarborough (@JoeNBC): Chris Christie was right again. Tonight’s debate has changed the trajectory of this race.

Bill Kristol (NRO): Best debate performance by a Republican presidential candidate in more than two decades.

Chick Todd (@chucktodd): One way u can tell Team Obama knows they lost the night: their spin is, Romney’s positions won’t win “long term” and they will come thru.

Robert Stacy McCain (@rsmccain): No “thrill ” tonight for Chris Matthews.

Laura Ingraham (@IngrahamAngle): BREAKING: @BarackObama just seen limping up the jet way to Air Force One, covered in Nicotine patches.

David Gergen (@David_Gergen): Whoa! CNN flash poll of registered voters found that by 67-25, they thought Romney won. Small sample but important.

Sean Hannity (@seanhannity): Rocky Mountain Massacre!

Dennis Miller (@DennisMillerDMZ): If Romney keeps this up Obama’s gonna vote for him.

Dana Perino (@DanaPerino): Maybe debate commission should add that little league rule – when the other team is that far ahead, you just call it a day.

Jonah Goldberg (@JonahNRO): When does Obama just say “Oh screw this” and walk off the stage?

Dana Perino (@DanaPerino): Surprised Axelrod hasn’t had the power cut to U of Denver campus…lights out!

NBC News (@NBCNews): Tonight’s debate was the most tweeted about event in US political history, topping the numbers from the RNC and DNC.

Mark Blumenthal (@MysteryPollster): CBS KN instant reaction poll: Big win for Romney. By 46-22 say think won, 56% have better opinion of Romney, Romney cares up from 30 to 63.

Ann Coulter (@AnnCoulter): In addition to his intelligence briefings, Obama apparently missed his debate briefings.

Ann Coulter (@AnnCoulter): I hope this is the part where Obama launches into his fake black Southern accent!

Joe Scarborough (@JoeNBC): Tonight was a big win for Mitt Romney. He dominated the debate in every way. This wasn’t even close.

Dennis Miller (@DennisMillerDMZ): Remember when Obama said keep your tires inflated? NOTE TO OBAMA CAMP, KEEP OBAMA INFLATED!

Robert Costa (@robertcostaNRO): Obama’s closing statement sounds almost sad. Wistful. The poetry of a rough night when he was beat by a prose man.

Robert Costa (@robertcostaNRO): Romney’s closing statement: Numbers, fact, number, fact, policy pt, fact. Nod. Fact. More numbers. End.
