<p>CGI studio <a href="http://www.inquisitr.com/353945/cathay-pacific-angry-about-video-portraying-business-class-flyers-as-perverts/" target="_blank">Next Media Animation</a> offers this satirical take (see video below) on the first presidential debate called &#8220;Mitt Clobbers Obama.&#8221; The video even briefly shows <a href="http://www.inquisitr.com/349378/mitt-romney-dances-gangnam-style-video/" target="_blank">Romney dancing</a> &#8220;Gangnam Style.&#8221;</p>
<p>According to NMA, &#8220;Romney handily trounced his opponent on the issues of jobs, the economy, and taxes.&#8221;</p>
<p>The creative Taiwan animators are now releasing their popular videos in an alternate version with English narration.</p>
<p>So why did Barack Obama <a href="http://www.inquisitr.com/352879/first-presidential-debate-romney-wins-big/" target="_blank">lose the first presidential debate</a> by a huge margin? Some commentators believe that it is simply because the <a href="http://www.inquisitr.com/351085/jimmy-carter-pollster-pat-caddell-calls-media-bias-a-threat-to-democracy-video/" target="_blank">mainstream media</a> has been giving the president a free ride for four years, and he is not used to being questioned on any of his policies.</p>
<p>In sharp contrast, <a href=" http://www.inquisitr.com/331816/romney-leading-obama-in-new-presidential-poll/" target="_blank">GOP challenger Mitt Romney</a> had to navigate a gruelling primary season and appear at many debates against his Republican rivals to capture the nomination along with dealing with a <a href="http://www.inquisitr.com/329698/news-media-overheard-coordinating-anti-romney-questions-listen/" target="_blank">hostile media</a> ready to pounce.</p>
<p>The <em>Washington Post</em>&#8216;s <a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/right-turn/post/media-sycophants-didnt-help-obama/2012/10/04/5492abf2-0e1a-11e2-bb5e-492c0d30bff6_blog.html" target="_blank">Jennifer Rubin</a> provided this analysis in the morning after the first presidential debate:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;The liberal media, and MSNBC specifically, have no one to blame but themselves, however. They have never given President Obama the sort of scrutiny he got last night &#8230; Obama had nowhere to go. He looked lost without the protective blanket of compliant media and over-eager left-wing bloggers &#8230; They might want to rethink their approach to presidential boosterism.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Immediately after the debate, Jeffrey Lord expressed similar sentiments on the <a href="http://spectator.org/blog/2012/10/04/obama-done-in-by-taranto-princ/print" target="_blank"><em>American Spectator</em> website</a> in referencing the &#8220;Taranto principle&#8221; coined by James Taranto of <em>The Wall Street Journal</em>:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;In short, it means that the liberal media so coddles liberal politicians that they have no idea how to cope outside that liberal media bubble &#8230; &#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Barack Obama has been so totally coddled by the liberal media that he looked absolutely shell-shocked in this debate. Stunned, unhappy, angry, sour &#8212; and at some points genuinely incoherent &#8230;&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Tonight, the Taranto Principle kicked in. Big time. Outside the liberal bubble &#8212; forced to be alone on a stage with a very serious, very prepared candidate &#8212; Barack Obama was in trouble. Big Trouble. And he has no one but himself &#8212; and his media coddlers &#8212; to blame.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
