I figure that the town hall is where he’ll shine, because the folks there will not have to worry about Willard stomping all over them to interrupt for a “rebuttal.” And we’ll actually get more of a variety in questions besides “How do you disagree about (insert budgetary topic)?”

Entirely possible. It will be fascinating to see how the tactics change after tonight. This is the first potential (POTENTIAL, not at all guaranteed) game-changing debate in a long time. I too believe president Obama will fight back in the town hall.

But Governor Romney hit hard tonight. It was actually impressive, even if one disagrees with him. It was a good debate, a fair debate, and Mr. Romney won. I suspect this will lead to spirited, entertaining, and dare I say substantive debates in the coming weeks.
