A series of missteps by Republican nominee Mitt Romney in criticizing President Obama’s account of the Sept. 11 attack on the U.S. diplomatic post in Benghazi, Libya, may make it far harder for him to continue using the incident as the heart of his wider complaint about the incumbent’s foreign policy record.
Romney has seized on the coordinated attack, which killed Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens and three other Americans, to back his contention that Obama has weakened the U.S. presence in the world and overseen an intentional diminution of American influence abroad.
In an election likely to be decided on economic issues, Romney’s move into foreign policy has stirred tensions within his campaign. But it has also put in play an issue — management of foreign policy — on which Obama once held a commanding lead.

Lies. The public saw through Crowley’s pathetic rescue of Obama for what it was.
Obama got a temporary reprieve, but people still know they’re being lied to and don’t like it at all.
No “BARF” parenthetical?
What misstep on Libya? The President lied and even that fool Crowley finally admitted it.
Yes, the MSM are officially in a panic and creating alternate universes.
They'd best not look behind them when they go 'over the top'.
Remember FORT HOOD WAS NOT A TERRORIST ATTACK....according to Obama and the department of justice.
Thankfully we can think for ourselves. Romney needs to say just enough to speak to the issue but thankfully articles like this and efforts like that by Candy last night are making that easy. We can reach our own conclusions.
Fools.
They are whistling past the graveyard big time!..................
Monday’s coming.
He did not misstep - and thus harm his chances to bring up the subject again!! Wash. Post is trying very hard to elect Obama. The subject of Libya will be in the news for the next 5 days or so including the weekend.
Candy Crowley interferred with the discussion, and everyone knows it. So, for the past 18 hours or so, this is the main discussion to come out of the 2nd debate. Hardly a subject that will be tbled during nxt week’s foreign policy debate.
TonyInOhio: HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA snort HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA
And here is the followup. Axelrod to Crowley to the Washington Post.
Exactly... total BS!
Only in your dreams, libs, only in your dreams.
Clueless wishful thinking combined with pitiful desperation is never attractive.
Monday’s upcoming debate is on foreign policy, is it not?
Romney will be well prepared I expect. He can hitObama on Libya again.
He should also be prepared for Bob Scheiffer to reveal his bias too, prepared to stand up for his right to finish his comments and speak the truth.
And............this debate will be the last, the opportunity for Romeny to instill in the voters a message they will not forget on Nov.6.
