I’m going to disagree because I know how that debate would have handled it. Romney would have had about 2 each 2 minute shots at cramming a gazillion details on a still-unfolding situation into a coherent argument.
I watched Bret Baier’s hour long documentary on Benghazi the other night. Even THAT ended with Bret saying there are many questions. So, if with graphics, living humans, and expert commentators, Bret had to consume an entire hour, then Romney would have had a heck of a time selling that message in 4 minutes worth of talking time.
But, I could be wrong.
The polls will tell if Romney’s strategic approach last night was a victory or a blunder.
Great show by Brett.
I still think that in terms of impact, Romney stunk like rotten tomatoes.
It wasn’t Romney that has to clarify it, but Obama sure should. Read it again and find an answer for what is Obama’s explanation of “we did everything we could” after receiving the phone call;
Obama “Now with respect to Libya, as I indicated in the last debate, when we received that phone call, I immediately made sure that, number one, that we did everything we could to secure those Americans who were still in harm’s way;”
