It wasn't the Horse & Bayonetts that was the winning zinger - it's what he said after that

I remember one time when I was a teenager and finally could drive. My mom was pretty cool about stuff, she didn't really have a curfew for me but just a request that if I was going to be home past a certain time that I was to give her a call so she knew everything was ok. Well one time when I didn't and I came home way after midnight I remember what my mother said when I tried to give her my excuse for not calling -

"You know they have these things call telephones, you can use them to call people and and let them know what's happening."

The whole "Horse and Bayonett" thing was funny as hell and will probably be super viral by this time tomorrow with videos, tweets, and photoshop opportunites. But what really stood out was how Obama essentially talked down to Mitt Romney and schooled him on just how little he knows about stuff. That moment was when Obama said this:

We have these things called aircraft carriers and planes land on them. We have ships that go underwater, nuclear submarines.

To me that was Obama saying 'Mitt you've had your fun getting all this attention playing "Presidential Candidate" but it's time I seal the deal on this election because I'm the only one qualified to do the job'.

I'll admit so far I've only watched the highlights but Mitt was really schooled bigtime when Obama said that. Obama looked Presidential and Mitt just sat there with that damn annoying smirk on his face. OMG He's Smirk Jr!
