Did you miss the key moments in last night’s debate or want a quick refresher? Watch our compilation: The Debate in 100 Seconds.

Top Republicans claim that Obama is trying to cut the debt too much.

Benjy Sarlin explains how the ‘Israel Issue’ could cost Dems Anthony Weiner’s old seat today in New York’s 9th district.

Relive the moment when Rick Santorum mixed up “illegal[s]” and “Latinos”. Watch it.

Maybe the weirdest moment of the night was when Jon Huntsman told Rick Perry: “For Rick to say you can’t secure the border is pretty much a treasonous comment.” But that’s the thing. I don’t think snark is Tea Party. Neither is Kurt Cobain.
