Moderator Candy Crowley spent all evening trying to avoid getting ‘Lehrer-ed,’ but her shining moment came when she shut down Romney on Libya. When the GOP candidate claimed Obama didn’t initially call the attack on the American consulate in Libya ‘an act of terror,’ Crowley corrected him. ‘He did in fact, sir,’ she said. ‘Can you say that a little louder?’ added Obama. UPDATE: while the president did, indeed, refer to 'acts of terror' in the aftermath of the attacks, some are disputing Crowley's characterization of his response.
Mitt Romney knocked his first presidential debate performance out of the park, but will he deliver again tonight? Watch our exclusive secret footage of how he's preparing for battle—in the rink.
Throughout his campaign, Mitt Romney has been promoting a five-point economic plan that includes developing energy independence and slashing government spending. But to President Obama, Romney's plan only has one point: 'to make sure that folks at the top play by a different set up rules.'
After failing to mention Romney’s notorious statements in the first debate, Obama made a point of defending America’s ‘47 percent’ in his closing remarks. Who are the '47 percent,' according to the president? 'People who are working hard everyday,' Obama argued, including soldiers, students, veterans, and 'folks on social security who've worked all their lives.'
