by Andrew Taylor - Oct. 23, 2012

There were many quotes and vivid deails throughout the article that explained what happened during the presidential debate on October 22nd, 2012. The article is somewhat biased because it sides mainly with Obama while putting in comments to show how Romney is unintelligent about topics like the navy and how it's size is diminishing. Obama replied back with a comment proving Romney's unknowledable points and says "Governor, today we also have fewer horses and bayonets." After this remark, the author indirectly implies Romney's unintelligence again. The main point of this article was to discuss the debate and the topic being covered. Overall, the article has 10 conversatonal quotes showing what the candidates said. This also shows balance between the length of the article and the factual quotes provided. The only downfall was there wern't many resources and citations showing where this article's information came about. It gives a good perspective on what was discussed during the debate making it informational.
