general keane, i know you're reluctant to say that there were mistakes made.ut it does seem like something could have been done in a military way that might have saved some lives for prevented the severity of this attack. >> we know that the security was totally inadequate. we are not talking about that. we are talking about the response. i think this criticism is second-guessing at its worst and suggesting that people should be fired from their jobs. we don't know the facts. but what we do know is that the response was pretty good. look at what happened. we have an attack and within that timeframe, a response from the annex came down. to get into those fights and rescue those that were still alive -- they took him back to their annex and brought them into a firefight in ambush to get back safely there was another response force that was sent from tripoli that did get to that annex and was able to export those escort those people who are still alive, safely back to the area so they could get out of there. that is pretty good response. >> he worked at the state

martha: what about libya, general keane? how did you think that was dealt with last night and in terms of the reasons why they didn't go at it more on libya? a lot of people at home are waiting for that. >> i think so too. libya is a manifestation of the fact that al qaeda is on the rise in the middle east. and that rise is quite dramatic. and what we suffered in libya and, and it is tough to deal with it certainly because of the human dimension of it but we suffered a stunning defeat. we had a u.s. diplomatic post ransacked and burned to the ground, ambassador killed. three of his teammates also killed in a clandestine activity forced to evacuate all in one single night. i don't know what the precedent for that is but it demonstrates that al qaeda has the confidence to do that. they are certainly emboldened by the defeat they just handed to the united states. martha: general keane, thank you very much. john bolton, ambassador, good to have you with us as well. >> thank you. bill: check of the markets and don't look now, fol

megyn: general keane, we appreciate.aving you. 24 hours after its release there are suggestions a brand-new booklet featuring the president's plan for a second term doesn't offer much new at all. we just outlined the state department e-mails obtained by fox. if the white house knew it was a terror attack on 9/11 who made the call for the president to attend a fundraiser in vegas the next day? >> last night and throughout this campaign i laid out a plan for jobs and middle class security. megyn: 24 hours after its release there is new criticism about president obama's latest messaging plan as reportedly not containing a lot of new ideas. that from some journalists over at another channel. despite that the president's campaign is planning to print millions of glossy booklets outlining a plan for economic recovery. joining us to discuss it monica crowley and kirsten powers. this is straight news journalist on another channel said there is nothing new in this. is that true? >> i think it's mostly true. i'm surprised how cont

significant perhaps a very big rise in part time employment one of your colleagues an economist called james keane has suggested a scheme that he calls quantities if easing for the public saying that the debt that private individuals have needs to be reduced under the scheme he says that cash should be issued to individuals and those with debt would have to use it to pay that debt down and those without it would have a cash injection it sounds like a great scheme do you think it would work that well i've suggested this as well in an article in the new straits. last week yeah that's fine i mean if you put money in that into the hands of the people. and make sure they as you say spend it in one way or another. then i think that gives a boost to the economy because they could increase their spending and therefore set up a demand for shoes and clothes and food and all the things that people spend money on and so that'll be good for business that's i think that's a good idea i actually suggested that the government give every household one hundred pound christmas present time limited so they need to do

and the time to press the flesh is getting short for the keanes as they try to lock in every single last vote before november 6th. nbc's tracie potts has details for us from washington. tracie, good morning. >> reporter: lynn, good morning. they're doing it by crisscrossing this country, hitting the battleground states. let's talk about governor romney. is he in nevada and iowa today. he's going to be in ohio tomorrow after last night rallying with his running mate, paul ryan. he had a huge rally in colorado, in addition to that "washington post"/abc poll there's a virtual tie in the latest reuters poll. he's only one point behind, essentially a tie. he says that president obama is slipping because he's promoting the same ideas, nothing new for the next four years. meantime, the obama/biden team in dayton, ohio late last night at a rally. the president showing off yesterday a new booklet that he says details his plan for the next four years. one that he says where the math adds up. he has a huge campaign schedule over the next three days in eight states including iowa, colorado and calif

the two keanes face off for round two in a town hall style forum at hofstra university on long island. the focus will be on both domestic and foreign policy. questions coming from undecided voters collected and placed in the audience. a new "usa today"/gallup poll shows growing momentum for mitt romney in 12 key battleground states. the ones on your screen include ohio, florida and virginia. the poll has mitt romney pulling ahead of the president by four points among likely voters. perhaps the bigger takeaway is how the candidates rank among likely women voters in the same battle ground states. it shows mitt romney pulling almost even with the president, trailing by one point, well within that margin of error. unlike two weeks ago when the president went sight seeing at the hoover dam the day before his debate in denver, yesterday mr. obama made no public aernest pas, staying behind closed doors at debate camp in williamsburg, virginia. with mitt romney also lowing lay during debate prep in boston, the wives of the candidates reached out to voters on the eve of debate. ann romney in p
