At a live taping of Comedy Central’s ‘The Daily Show’ scheduled to air on Thursday night, President Obama told host Jon Stewart that he had an “off night” at the first debate, adding that his “presentation was not the way it needed to be.”

“Governor Romney makes a good presentation but the fundamentals he’s calling for are the same policies that got us into this mess,” Obama added, per a pool report provided by the White House.
