I want to thank Eugene Robinson of The Washington Post for his Oct. 3 column, “Which Mitt will show up?”

Apparently, the Mitt Romney who showed for the first debate up did not need a teleprompter to carry on a concise conversation. President Deer In The Headlights, on the other hand, seemed to be not so self-assured.

If Mitt Romney had a zinger, it was to set up a fan to blow away the smoke and a hammer to shatter the mirrors that the president builds around himself.

If Mr. Robinson wants to talk about real people, maybe he should find out who Barrack Obama actually is. If Mr. Robinson were not so blatantly biased, he would not look like an incompetent observer.

P.O. Brown
