60 Minutes?

My husband just informed me Obama and Romney will be appearing on 60 Minutes tonight. Anyone else planning on watching?

I'm new and just trying to think of something to contribute.

  • I missed it. Did you catch it?
  • I missed it too.  I"m a nerd and added all the debates to my calendar a couple nights ago so I wouldn't miss one.

    the first one is on DH's and I anniversary.  i know what we will both be doing that night. LOL.  ever since i had the baby i need a calendar and cannot live without it.  too much going on to remember anything anymore. DH thinks it will be a landslide win but i told him that i think it will be closer than he thinks, but i'm on more liberal websites than he is and see more obama supporters than he does.  i told him if he wins he will get a bj:)  TMI.  this is a big deal since it doesn't happen much anymore

    Nerds aren't usually the guys bullying in school, just FYI.

    Hi vlagrl29,

    They are just distracting people from the topic.

    Hi vlagrl29,

    What was the topic being distracted from? She said "Hope the nerds win" and JustAPhase said "Romney's not the nerd."  Doesn't seem like issue dodging to me.

     vlagrl29 - she was referring to Romney pinning a gay student down and cutting his hair off when he was in high school.  I agree that Romney isn't really a nerd, he's more like the prom king that tries to schmooze the other popular kids.

  • I did watch it. The one thing that really made me mad was when the asked Romney about the 47% clip, the seriously played the first half sentence of his answer. I was so curious about how he would respond to that and it seemed like they cut him off so quickly. So that was disappointing.

    I didn't watch it so I don't know how abrupt the cut was.  But I doubt he would have said anything different than what he already said in the press conference and interviews called in direct response to the video.  Still - I can see why you would be disappointed.

    Distracting from the oh so important topic of talking about who watched 60 Minutes? Ya caught me!

    No, coffeebeen is correct, I was just pointing out that Romney is far from a nerd. He was a bully in school.

    No worries. I wasn't making a joke at your expense. It can be hard to read tone over the interwebs.
