And it did save zerO because Romney was probably thrown off his entire Libya attack and zerO got to be the sarcastic asshole his worshipers love and adore and even applauded with his “Say it louder” bullshit in which Crowley complied. That was really the turning point for the debate because up until then Obama was sputtering trying to explain the economy and his energy polices.
Yes the “say it louder” remark from Obama to Crowley just reeks of that hit piece being rehearsed as Obama said it with such ease as if they had rehearsed those lines together a million times before the actual debate.
