To help recap and analyze last night's presidential debate, Fox News' America's Newsroom trotted out a string of former Bush administration officials -- including Donald Rumsfeld and John Bolton -- to pile accolades on Mitt Romney's performance and attack President Obama. The Bush veterans were joined by several conservative commentators, Romney surrogates, and the occasional Democrat.Below is the list of non-reporter guests America's Newsroom featured this morning to comment on the debate, in order of appearance.
Stephen F. Hayes: Weekly Standard columnist, Dick Cheney hagiographer, and chief chronicler of the (nonexistent) "operational relationship" between Saddam Hussein and Osama bin Laden.
Stuart Varney: Fox Business Network host, jobs report conspiracy theorist, and Romney campaign messaging troubleshooter.
Herman Cain: One-time Republican presidential candidate who probably knows where Libya is and boasts expertise on American-Ubeki-beki-beki-beki-stan-stani relations.
John Bolton: Romney foreign policy advisor, George W. Bush's ambassador to the United Nations, and advocate of bombing Iran.
Gen. Jack Keane: Romney supporter, rumored candidate for White House national security advisor under Romney, and "intellectual architect" of the 2007 Iraq "surge."
Sen. Rob Portman (R-OH): Office of Management and Budget director under George W. Bush, Romney surrogate, and Romney's debate coach.
Donald Rumsfeld: Secretary of Defense under George W. Bush who praised Romney's "terrific" speech at the Virginia Military Institute earlier this month.
Gen. Wesley Clark: Former Democratic candidate for president and Obama campaign advisor.
Sen. Roy Blunt (R-MO): Romney surrogate.
