George Will: ‘This Was Immeasurably The Best Debate’ I Have Ever Seen

During ABC’s post-debate coverage, conservative columnist George Will had a glowing review of Tuesday night’s second presidential debate between President Barack Obama and GOP challenger Mitt Romney.

When asked who won the debate, Will responded: “I think there was a winner in the sense that Barack Obama not only gained ground he lost but he cauterized some wounds that he inflicted on himself by seeming too diffident and disengaged.”

“It was a very good fight,” he added. “I have seen every presidential debate in American history since the floor of Nixon and Kennedy in 1960. This was immeasurably the best.”

“I think as a tactical measure tonight, the president did very well,” he concluded.
