First Debate: Zinger Score 2 to -1

Although I did not take an official scoring of the First Debate (Transcript) , two zingers the President came up with regarded Trump and SNL.  For Romney it was his "five boys" under the bus or at the President's lies.  "Never mind".

OK, so it really wasn't a debate for zingers. I happen to have heard the debate on the radio**, with only a few interruptions and don't wish to give them a grade, but only remind that it was only first of three, and try to find a commentary(Thom Hartmann?) that what matters is the post-debate spin.  Not that I will follow-up on the links here, but will suggest that Obama* will probably ramp up his urgency but remain steady in the next debates.

* Is it too late to score the Big Bird as a zinger?
