next door in syria. bill: the topic will be foreign policy, which looked like it would take a back seat to the economy until a terrorist attack on september 11th in benghazi. governor mike huckabee, host of huckabee on the fox news channel. good morning to you. good morning bill. bill: we have a lot of experience in this debate stuff. this is the third and final round. how does mitt romney go after this? i think he has to go into it aggressively but has to make sure the president answers the question he never really got around to answering on the debate in libya. they got all into the words what he used in the rose garden and what it meant. that is the not issue. the issue for almost three weeks, the president, his press secretary, the secretary of state, the ambassador all continued to spill out a narrative that was not true and they knew it wasn t true. he has got to push back on that. bill, i think hes that to do one other thing. he has to show this is not just about benghazi.
