Obama's Chances of Reelection Increase

Second debate watched by bookies

Reading around this morning, everyone's got a theory about who won last night's Big American Chat between Barack Obama and Mitt Romney. "Obama regains the initiative to win second presidential debate", claims The Guardian, pointing to "gaffes" over Benghazi and something about "binders full of women", which sounds positively Silence of the Lambsian. Our own Tim Stanley thinks that Obama "won on points" but that he may suffer under fact-checking. "It wasn't enough," fretted Liberal Conspiracy's Sunny Hundal. The Washington Post's Greg Sargent thinks Obama "turned it around".
