This is from The Washington Post this morning:

Who won the debate?

Mitt Romney 53%

Barack Obama 47%

49343 people have taken this poll.

That is, it comes from readers of The Washington Post which should tell you something. It comes at the end of an article by Jennifer Rubin who discusses the remarkable three-way exchange over Benghazi. The question had come from Kerry Ladka and this is at the centre of Rubin’s article:

Was Ladka satisfied with how the president responded? Simply no. ‘I really didn’t think he totally answered the question satisfactorily as far as I was concerned,’ Ladka tells the Erik Wemple Blog.

But don’t you know. That’s why the media moderator intervened to help the helpless Obama out.
