But you can see video highlights of our post-debate recap show below. Scroll down to see the transcript from our live chat, as well.

Granholm: Romney's true record on jobs is 'to be a shark' and 'lay people off'

Jennifer Granholm takes on Mitt Romney's comments that President Obama doesn't understand layoffs during Current's "Politically Direct 2012" post-debate analysis. "It's incredibly disingenuous for somebody who made money off of laying people off," Granholm says. "There was no market that was willing to step in and save those jobs [in Detroit]. If you compare the two, the president by far has a record of saving jobs, and Mitt Romney's record ... is to be a shark, to go in, borrow money, take companies through bankruptcy and lay people off." 

Will Keystone be Obama's biggest liability in the general election?

"What attack made on the president tonight could you see actually being effective in the general election?" a viewer asked during Current's "Politically Direct 2012" post-debate analysis. Cenk Uygur's answer is the Keystone pipeline attacks could be one. "The veracity of those statements is a different issue," Cenk says, "but we're within days of Obama buckling on this issue." Jennifer Granholm says she "totally disagrees," because "that was a hard enough decision for [Obama] to make in the first place." 

Fox News asked tough questions, but didn't challenge conservative principles

Who made the best bid for vice president in the Sioux City, Iowa, GOP debate? Jennifer Granholm asks the panelists in Current's "Politically Direct 2012" post-debate analysis, and whether Fox News might have possibly done a good job moderating it. "There is such a big inconsistency among all of the candidates about what issues they will let the states decide versus what they want the federal government to decide," Brian Unger points out. "And that's just a very basic journalistic query." But, as Cenk Uygur says, "They're not going to actually challenge conservative principles on Fox News."
