And in New York if someone attacks you, you don't passively take the abuse but strike back twice as hard. Also, what's up with his failure to defend his record? I'm sure most of you agree that Obama has a lot to be proud of, but you wouldn't know it while watching the debate.

Yes, I hope Obama has learned from his failure and will do much better in the next two debates. But, let's face it, a lot of damage has already been done.
