A mocking retort by Barack Obama during the presidential debate with Mitt Romney has become an instant Internet hit. Users of a variety of social networks galloped headlong into jokes about horses and bayonets as fast as the Web could post them.

The remark came during Monday night’s 90-mitute face-off between candidates, the third and final presidential debate. Romney blasted Obama for being ‘weak’ on military issues, arguing that the US Navy “is smaller now than at any time since 1917.”

“Well, Governor, we also have fewer horses and bayonets, because the nature of our military's changed,” Obama responded. “We have these things called aircraft carriers, where planes land on them. We have these ships that go underwater, nuclear submarines.”

It was the most-tweeted moment of the debate, generating 105,767 tweets per minute, while the hashtag #horsesandbayonets trended immediately, becoming the third top trend worldwide. The phrase was also the most-searched term on Google.

very funny

One thing I learnt from the debate is that you don't need to be very clever to go far in politics. Imagine Romney saying Iran needs syria to get access to the sea, when Iran has a long stretch of coastline and has repeated threatened to close the strait of hormuz.

What I have also learnt is that people can be blinded by an unholy loyalty to a party, so whatever the party person the party present, they will support.
