Caught on Camera: Candid Audience Reactions to Presidential Debate

U.S. President Barack Obama and Republican candidate Mitt Romney faced off in the second presidential debate of the 2012 election season Tuesday night. The town-hall style showdown at New York's Hofstra University meant candid audience moments captured by television cameras.
