Republicans hammered away at Obama over the mishandling of the Benghazi crises on the Sunday talk shows today. The question is whether enough Americans care that their president has lied to them about this terrorist attack or not.

The low-information voters who will be voting for Obama will simply respond to such questions about this embarrassing failure with a blank look as they ask, "What is a ben gazi?"

Will Leon Panetta let himself become a scapegoat, at least until after the election, or does he hope to have a political career after this campaign? Obama said that he told his staff to do whatever was needed to secure "our folks." If you believe that, then you must also believe that Panetta disobeyed a direct order from his Commander-in-Chief when he decided that intelligence was too weak to risk deploying any of our military assets to secure the consulate.

Will Obama be able to run out the clock before the media finally cries "Foul!" That may determine whether this scandal plays out after the election or if the election metes out justice to the scoundrels who sat and watched as Americans were attacked and killed in Libya, without lifting a finger to help them.
