    Committing suicide with a spear, like Mitt, is desperate indeed. As usual, Lisa has it backward.

    Romney correctly pointed out the complete failure of the past 4 years under Barry. Oh and the blatant lie O told that he called Benghazi a terrorist attack from day one only fooled his blind sheep (Crowley included).

    For those talking about Candy Crowley’s corrections, she was trying to get Romney to reword his statement. Crowley knew Romney was right, he just needed to rephrase it. What did Obama say in the Rose Garden?

    “No acts of terror will ever shake the resolve of this nation, alter that character, or eclipse the light of the values that we stand for,”

    He did not specifically say that Benghazi was an act of terrorism. What did Obama do, blame a movie for two weeks before specifically calling the death of four Americans an act of terror.

    Romney presents a fiscal plan and get screamed down as a liar etc, etc. Obama say “trust me I’ll figure something out” and everyone is comfortable. Considering our fiscal condition is static to declining and he has presented no viable plan other than tax the rich, I’m not comfortable with him…

    It took this long to come up with this?

    BTW: overlooked was President Obama’s response in the debate that as soon as news came from Benghazi, HE, and his people were immediately working with staff around the world, to step up security, to see to it that this singular tragic incident was NOT GOING TO HAPPEN ELSEWHERE. Mitt immediately attacked, with NO understanding whatsoever, of where ELSE in the world our staffs might be at risk, and steps had to be taken immediately. Obama WAS acting immediately on this, and those security steps did NOT need to be put before the media, or people! Yes, President Obama DOES know the job, as does Secretary Clinton. MItt does not, and his “foreign policy advisors” are the same ones “W” had, we don’t need to repeat all those mistakes.

    You covered most of the points that had occurred to me, tho I might have said them differently. I would only add this…I have a great deal of admiration for a person who can take the abuse Romney, and many of the electorate, has inflicted on him and keep his composure.I still don’t think either of them answered the questions actually asked of them in the spirit in which they were asked.Respectfully,C.

    My internet favorite websites are filled with many different writers at many different sources reporting the FAILURE of Obama and his debate Assistant, Candy Crowley, to shield the public from learning of Romney’s true positions on many issues.-The list of Obama’s LIES keeps growing….Candy even helped Obama lie about Obama’s "calling Benghazi an “act of terror” in his 9/12/12 Rose Garden tv announcement where he said “no acts of terror” would be ignored for reaction by the USA…..then Obama went on to start a 14 DAY campaign of blaming the Benghazi attack on “a video made in America that outraged Muslims and caused protests”…even at the UN Obama said that lie 6 times, after sending US Ambass. Rice on 9/16/12 to 5 TV networks to spread the exact same LIE.-In an age of TV and telephone videos and a permanent record in video/audio, it must take Supreme Audacity to keep on LYING, relying on the ignorance of most voters who don’t have time or interest to keep up with the mountains of lies Obama/Biden have left on the campaign trails….or to check even the stacks of US government reports available on the internet to print out and study…that prove that Obama lies every time he claims the opposite of the truth on each issue…“new jobs”…“federal land/ocean oil/gas production”….etc, etc.-Thanks to conservative media, the US Public is much more informed than Obama’s team believes….Polls are beginning to reflect the rejection of Democrat’s standard MO of campaigning with falsehoods.

    Candy Crowley was not trying to “correct” Romney…she was doing 90 minutes of Palin’s “MAMA GRIZZLEY” protection of Obama from Romney’s answers and questions….she was deflecting and cutting Romney off and giving Obama 2nd answers and not giving Romney equal opportunities to give a 2nd answer. Crowley gave Obama almost 4 minutes more speaking time than Romney. Obama to this day has not fully answered Romney’s question about the 14-day “cover-up” of the actual facts of no protests, no riot, and a Pre-Planned Al Qaeda attack done to kill 4 Americans and destroy a US consulate.…..My #1 question: why was nothing done after numerous attacks and definite terrorist threats against Ambassador Stevens and the US consulate?? there are records and testimony that the Obama administration was given that info.

    ^My “disgust meter” has been pegged since Romney spoke, and you just keep going? The loyal opposition on “the right” has indeed lunged forward to treason, or idiocy, both.

    Will you help me make millions of dollars? Or even a few thousand? I wish I knew how. Until my next check at the beginning of the month I am living on $3.07. I guess that really isn’t a good start.

    Actually Dems blamed Kerry for not being a better stand-in for Romney in the debate rehearsals. It’s incredible that anyone could find anyone to blame other than Obama for that one.
