Hempstead, New York (CNN) - President Barack Obama fought back and Republican challenger Mitt Romney mostly stood his ground.
The second of three presidential debates on Tuesday night brought the desired energy from the president sought by worried Democrats after a lackluster performance in the first encounter nearly two weeks ago.

President did great–let Detroit go bankrupt....he shut mitt mouth.
Mitt Romney shipped jobs to china. He is Mr. china.
Romney looks like he wants to cry.
Obama has his mojoe back. He surely is the winner tonight!
Mittens is gone Mental....
Mittens is twisting himself up into a pretzel regarding a ban on assault weapons.
Bain was the biggest outsourcing company..started during the Regan years....made billions. Is Mitt really going to bring jobs back – at decent wages, benefits, including health care? Really?
Romney is such a liar. I can barely stand to listen to his anything he has to say. Anyone making less than $251,000 a year could be a complete fool to vote for him. If he wins the new American lifestyle will be very painful to all non-millionares.
Wow!! Romney is getting his but whipped. He has become unhinged. I felt the power of the Presidency when he smacked Romney down about Syria. That was powerful.
Romney really done have a true bone in his body, and he not for the middle class, he say what people wants to here but he is a big lier
would be not could be
I guess theres no concern over physical proof of four years of failed policies
Romney is coming across as a petulant child. I also find it funny that he is even flip-flopping here in the debate on the current question to be answered choosing instead to go back one from two or three questions ago.
it would be nice if obama let rommey response and finish a point... and the director of the debate didn't keep the lining of questioning the same for both the canidates seriously, obama interupted on almost every rommey's topic
Romney is all talk!!! Just like bush he will say whatever it takes to get into office and do what he wants....and not what is needed! Dont buy in to what he says ppl!!!! TALK IS CHEAP!!!!!!!
I agree with the Lybia smack down. We definately have a great commander in chief and Romney better stay off that topic
I'll say again, Romney has 8 million dollars worth of stock in Bain that holds 51% of shares in Sensata Technology of Freeport Illinois that is currently in the process of closing down and outsourcing all of it's jobs to China on Nov. 5th, the day before the presidential election. Romney is such a hypocrite!
Someone call Johnson & Johnson because Romney needs seem Band-Aids!
Decision Romney!
Checkmate!
Forward Obama/Biden 2012!
President Obama won this debate and Won my vote this election..!!!!
Even though Romney was cut off several times and had less time to speak. He still got his point across.
i think Obama is going take the country a head and better then Mitt Romney will do
Obama won tonight and it was a wider blowout than the first debate was for Romney.. what a whoopin he put on Governor Romney, you could tell, even Romney knew he was whooped tonight by the look on his face in the end. what a complete beat down by the president!!!
1-1 rubber match next week!!!
Romney bold faced lied the gas price in the Hempstead area was NOT $1.86 TRY ALMOST $5. I STILL HAVE NO IDEA WHAT ROMNEY IS SELLING. Obama was great. No one asked the question about Abortion or why Romney does not tell the people who say We should make it the WHITE House again. Romney is like a the travelin medicine man. Candi did a great job fact checking Romney about Libya. The President has my vote. Romney can GO KICK ROCKS. Romney is a misleader of facts.
