Are Republicans ...

I don't think so. Of course, I'm not in the US and have no first-hand experience about how this election is being perceived in the swing states at the moment, but I get the impression that Romney has the momentum at this point, which seems to be reflected by some of the most recent polls. Additionally, I don't think Obama's debate "win" will change that. Firstly, nothing groundbreaking happened yesterday. Secondly, foreign policy doesn't appear to be a very important issue in this election campaign. If anything, Obama should have received a bounce from the second debate, where I thought he was really dominating on the issue of Libya, but that didn't happen. I therefore think Romney is on track to win this election, something I thought would not be possible not too long ago.
