I think neither looked very presidential and I would call it a draw. Obama was more engaged than last time, was more persuasive in his arguments, and carried the ball more with fewer fumbles this time. Romney was not the dominant player last night.
Both ground out and ugly time last night.
Obama did not categorize Libya as an Act of Terror in that speech and is being misleading stating otherwise.
Really getting sick of both parties and the spin.

Obama made a few small mistakes and Romney several bigger ones. Romney really blew it with the Libya attack. Obama looked pretty comfortable and confident the entire time.
The next debate is all about foreign policy and it should be good.

Speaking of spin, Obama was his usual mix of Von Clausewitz, Mahan, JFK, Einstein, and Hamilton, Adams, and Washington, eh Spence?
