Gish is noted for rapidly spewing so many talking points, half-truths, and lies, that the scientists he debates are overwhelmed, not knowing what to respond to first.

This is the best explanation I’ve seen of what happened in the debate on Oct. 3.

I think you are correct. Unfortunately, many of the news articles today don’t seem to have the same opinion as to why Obama sometimes didn’t know quite how to respond to the very aggressive Romney.
