They give it to Rhonda that was in Dubai -- -- -- sentiment was split I would say in the second debate but how about last night.
The media clearly -- that want to the president to President Obama.
A -- -- some headlines first off the Washington Post says Obama keeps Romney on his heels okay.
A Los Angeles Times says Obama reverses rolls comes out swinging in debate.
San Francisco chronicle headline once Romney sweats Obama constant -- Joining me now is Tim Graham he's the director of media analysis at the media research percent to.
Tim was a -- of -- and across the establishment media that Obama won.
Well yes and it's because on some level they all look for the instant polls.
-- to remember now though that some of these instant polls like the ones on CBS her instant polls only of the uncommitted voters.
And I guess you can argue at this point.
They're the ones that matter and maybe -- Paul that would matter would be the one where you say are you more likely to vote for Obama now are you more likely to vote for Romney.
Those were pretty much a wash last night.
Now I'm looking within the overall instant poll -- at -- looking at CNN for example.
They asked people all right do you how do you think.
These the two candidates come across in handling the job of -- commander in chief.
63%.
Said President Obama is okay sixty people 60% said -- is okay that's pretty close on handling the job of commander in chief.
And when asked women a -- -- question it was split 5050 between Romney and Obama.
Female support so I'm suggesting that if you -- within the overall numbers that first came out.
You might have a different view of who won and who lost the debate.
You might but I you know again it then we have a liberal media that's going to declare Obama the winner and less it's incredibly obvious.
That he was not the winner and that that they're taking off this morning then on the idea.
They don't Mitt Romney said that Obama with some apology tour and we have an entire liberal media establishment that wants to say that if the president never use the word apologize.
He didn't.
Have an apology tour and I thought Romney's answer was.
But complete refutation of all these liberal journalists when he said let's quote what you actually said you went to Cairo UN to these capitals and you said our policy stinks we've been dismissive we've -- -- -- a bunch of arrogant imperialists.
And then -- and so what do you call that.
I call that a president apologizing for his country we have a -- of journalists who are all here to try to get Obama elected so that's what they're doing this morning they're spinning furiously as usual.
Real fast Tim I don't think is walking out of nothing has enough time left for the media to to do anything about this I just gave up people via the viewers.
They latest Rasmussen in eleven swing state poll fifty Romney.
45 Obama last what do you -- like I -- -- for the media to effect this.
It's possible but again we could see some of the most aggressive biased to date coming in the next two weeks if they really believe Obama's losing and will -- looking -- and so -- you of course Tim Graham we do appreciate -- being with us thank you.
