Obama had zero foreign policy experience at all when he took office as well. Most Presidents don't. The majority of presidents are former governors (like Reagan, Clinton, Bush, and now presidential hopeful Romney).
It's real hard to beat a sitting President when it comes to foreign policy. They have access to information that the challenger does not. Probably why Romney chose to not be combative about it. Probably the smartest thing he could do in that situation.
And I agree...last night was all about firing up the base.
It is funny though...back before the first debate the media incorrectly reported that Romney was preparing "zingers" for the debates. All the liberal folks on here went ballistic over that and called Romney an idiot for doing that (which it turned out he didn't).
Then after the debate last night, the panel on CNN was talking about how great the "zingers" were that Obama practiced ahead of time (the bayonet and horse one) based off of Romneys speeches.
Not one of the people on GFY who called Romney an idiot for preparing "zingers" (though he didn't) had anything but praise for Obama's "zinger" lol
Matter of fact they've spent the whole day putting up political cartoons about how great Obama's pre-planned "zinger" is.
The hypocrisy is just incredible amongst Obama supporters/Romney haters. I've never seen a cult of personality type following like he has.
