Here is another good sign, from Buzz Bissinger on why he is voting for Romney.

Even Andrew Sullivan -- the most sycophantic Obama lover in the universe -- is horrified:

The Pew poll is devastating, just devastating. Before the debate, Obama had a 51 - 43 lead; now, Romney has a 49 - 45 lead. That's a simply unprecedented reversal for a candidate in October. Before Obama had leads on every policy issue and personal characteristic; now Romney leads in almost all of them. Obama's performance gave Romney a 12 point swing! I repeat: a 12 point swing.
Romney's favorables are above Obama's now. Yes, you read that right. Romney's favorables are higher than Obama's right now. That gender gap that was Obama's firewall? Over in one night:
Seriously: has that kind of swing ever happened this late in a campaign? Has any candidate lost 18 points among women voters in one night ever? And we are told that when Obama left the stage that night, he was feeling good. That's terrifying. On every single issue, Obama has instantly plummeted into near-oblivion. . . . . But on the core issues of the economy and the deficit, Romney is now kicking the president's ass:
Quite the collapse + rally. A moderate Republican beats a burnt-out, out of gas, less-than-slightly enthusiastic incumbent president. Particularly during current times in our country. We (this country) have to figure something out, most certainly the economy. If Obama is tired of it, fine. I'm tired of it to. That is where/why Romney's debate performance resounded. Surprisingly so.
I'm not thrilled with a Massachusetts Mormon. However, the President seems less thrilled about all of it.
