Second debate: Almost fisticuffs, and Mitt lost.

15 minutes and you can see the tone:

Obama has got game, refuting Mitt's assertions on each issue and Candy Crowley is barely keeping this from becoming fisticuffs.  Mitt's still the same boisterous guy, but Obama's not letting him get by.

Mitt tried to assert that Obama cut public land leases; Obama countered that the policy was, that if you don't use it, you lose it and we'll re-auction off those leases.  Which one is closer to a free-market policy?  Mitt's willing to let oil companies hold onto leases without using them for decades.
