Sarah Boxer @Sarah_Boxer More from @CBSNews poll of uncommitted voters- Who would do better job helping middle class? 56% Obama, 43% Romney
John Weaver @JWGOP This actually was better than Obama was even in 2008. His best debate performance as a presidential candidate. Period.
Ezra Klein @ezraklein Romney won the first debate by a larger margin than I expected. Obama won the second debate by a larger margin than I expected.
Chris Matthews @hardball_chris Obama won big on W policies and equal treatment for women and on taxes before that. He is way ahead. #debates

Ron Fournier @ron_fournier Obama nailed the close
Abby Huntsman @HuntsmanAbby: #Obama continues to prove to the American people that he is Commander in Chief – looked very strong in foreign policy exchange.

Charlie Spiering @charliespiering My take: Obama did better in debate, caught Romney on several zingers
M. Ambinder @ThePEOC I watched from the debate hall, didn’t see how it looked, don’t know what others are saying. My early impression: Obama killed it.
Andrew Sullivan @sullydish Obama has won every single exchange in this debate; and he has also appeared calmer and more authoritative. http://thebea.st/V7xk8A
Ben Smith @BuzzFeedBen Video of the libya exchange, the moment Obama won the debate.http://youtu.be/a-sp0b33fbs
Corey Dade @coreydadeNPR Obama touches all bases: I believe free enterprise, self-reliance, individual initiative, all getting a fair shot, paying their fair share.
michaelhirsh @michaelphirsh Whoa. Obama saves his 47 percent ref for last … smart, effective. And no chance for comeback. He wins, no question.
Charlie Spiering @charliespiering My take: Obama did better in debate, caught Romney on several zingers
Tim Dickinson @7im Brooks: Obama won the debate
Ari Melber @AriMelber Probably the best debate of Obama’s career, a U-turn from first debate – @maddow
Joshua Green @JoshuaGreen Well, I thought it was near-rout for Obama. Curious what snap polls say.

AdamSerwer @AdamSerwer Yeah Obama won that debate.
Ethan Klapper @ethanklapper Race is reset, and Romney’s bounce is probably done after this. Especially among women.
