Romney showed how well he could lie and evade the truth. The pundits refuse to call him on this, and still treat it like a boxing match. If he's elected and the country goes down the tubes, it will be the "liberal" press that gave him the pass to do it.

I hope you read this, Bob. I try to watch you every Sunday morning. So glad to know you will be the moderator. PLEASE, PLEASE keep control of the debate and do not let either one stray from the rules! The last debate was terrible. The rules were explained and immediately broken with Romney's opening. He interrupted and insisted on having the final say after Obama's turn to speak. When Obama realized what Romney was doing, he had to do the same--other than not be rude and interrupt. We have enough problems with people not following the rules (I hope students weren't watching this terrible example of how to just do what you want)and to see the possibility of the president acting like this was deporable! YOU CAN DO IT!!! If necessary, turn off their microphone if they go over.

Politifact,com has some answers: labeled 'pants on fire', of course that is more of the so-called 'lame-stream media. Can anyone address Mr. Romney's off shore accounts, out-sourced jobs, Vulture Capitalism (his own party members words), etc., and, by the way, why haven't those folks hit the stump for him, furthermore, what about the fact that nobody from the recent past Republican party was invited to the RNC and none have joined the campaign trial. Clinton has stepped up for the President? Where's George W. Bush? Can voters really just let all those issues go with out challenge?

How can a serious journalist as well-informed, interesting, and entertaining as O'Donnell spend every weekday morning posing as a smiling and obedient ornament for boorish Charlie Rose?

And, btw, her fresh and unabashed demeanor makes her an awesome guest host on FTN!

Please keep David Axelrod off the air. He adds NOTHING to the discussion. If his lips are moving, he's lying.

I would love to know why no one can will pin down Romney for EXACTS. The standard line is Both sides stretch the truth. Again, why will no one make the point there is a huge difference between exaggerate and bold face fabrication on grand scales. How can this behavior be allowed to continue and why when the press is so well informed and privy to experts are they not fact checking. After all they are supposed to work for the citizens. It's not your father's news media either,is it? Candidates should be called out for their "huge over statements" and let the degrees of fabrication be found out afterwards. At least give the average Joe a clue. What happen to journalism seeking the truth.

Once again the liberal media has shown their cards! What's with giving your whole show this AM to the "re-elect Obama" theme? I am so tired of the biased methods CBS and Face the Nation use I could scream!
"Greasy" Axelrod has stooped to name-calling, so I do as well. What happened to equal time among the candidates? I wish you all could look at yourselves objectively... it would make you sick!

The issue that Axlerod needs to convey to the American people is simple. Yes Obama was off his game but simple put when Romney will say anything including change his views from one moment to the next in order to confuse voters on his stance is a strategic move of untruths. As a voter I question everything on both sides. But not everyone does. Romney is counting on that and will win if we as Americans don't look for the facts.

I am very disappointed in Face the Nation this morning. Bringing Mr. Axlerod on to say the same old thing he has been saying since the debate is obnoxious to say the least.If President Obama was not ready for a simple debate he will never be ready to be Commander and Chief of this nation that reguires someone to be ready for anything at a moments notice. Very scary to say the least.

Just watched your show with Axelrod and if I were Obama I would fire this guy for using liar liar pants on fire! He should be ashamed of himself unless this is all they have which I believe. Why didn't you follow up on the tough question that Obama promised to cut the deficit in half. You again let Axelrod off the hook. Why?
