At the time, I thought Romney would nail him for failing to answer the question directly. The correct answer was, since the President earlier announced that he’s “responsible” for the events leading to Benghazi, that he was therefore to blame for denying enhanced security. That’s what grown-ups mean when they say they’re “responsible”. Romney missed an opportunity.
He did but it does not matter. The topic is all over the media today and will continue to be in the media up until the next debate.
The biggest problem is how these debates are done. They are not balanced. Why can't Hannity or Levin moderate? All the moderators are leftists. Or, why not just let them ask each other questions and answer them man-to-man until they can't do so anymore?
Obama will lose in a landslide.
Romney missed several opportunities to go for the jugular and I am dissapointed that he refused to nail Obama. This is indicative of how he will be as a President, IMO.
He may think he would have turned off too many viewers, but I think the ones he favorably impressed with his no-nonsense and not willing to put up with Obama’s lies would have vastly offset the ones he turned off.
Lost opportunities do not help America recover. Let’s hope Romney ‘gets it’ between now and the last debate.
