The Jimmy Kimmel Show asks voters who won the debate - before it happened. They have strong opinions.
I thought it was more intimate... it brought them closer to the people...
Candy Crowley says she's not backtracking on her (mistaken) confirmation of the president's Rose Garden statements, but at the same time she offers clarification that sounds like she's backing off.
I was trying to move this along... there is no question that the administration is quite vulnerable on this topic... that took a long time, and then we got hung up on this... what I wanted to do was move this along...
The Obama voters from four years ago who took part in the Luntz debate focus group Tuesday night are moving to Romney.
A key area of dispute in Tuesday's debate was whether the president called the Benghazi attack an act of terror in a Rose Garden speech the day after the September 11th killing of four Americans. Candy Crowley sided with Obama's claim that he did call it an act of terror, throwing Mitt off stride, but the president didn't, specifically, call the event an act of terror.
The president did use the word terror during his remarks, but didn't specifically call Benghazi an act of terror.
No acts of terror will ever shake the resolve of this great nation, alter that character or eclipse the light of the values that we stand for.

Karl Rove's assessment of Debate II: Advantage Obama, but not what the president needed to change the course of the election.
George Will wonders whether the Romney lead will be evanescent. Which depends on what the meaning of inchoate is.
If it is durable, it will be because I think usually what happens in debates that matter is they catalyze an inchoate feeling the electorate had and that and that it becomes articulate and present and powerful.
Inchoate means 'Just begun and so not fully formed or developed.' Evanescent means 'Soon passing out of sight, memory, or existence; quickly fading or disappearing.'
