Fewer horses and bayonets!

In the first presidential debate, Romney's attack on Sesame Street's "Big Bird" sent the social media world into a frenzy. In the second debate, Romney's "binders full of women" comment kept people laughing for days, while last night's "horses and bayonets" Obama zinger caused another stir in the social media universe:

"You mention the Navy, for example, and the fact that we have fewer ships than we did in 1916.  Well Governor, we also have fewer horses and bayonets," said the president. "We have these things called aircraft carriers and planes land on them. We have ships that go underwater, nuclear submarines... It's not a game of Battleship where we're counting ships, it's What are our priorities?"
