A once-hawkish Mitt Romney scrambled to position himself as a centrist on global affairs in his final debate with President Barack Obama, a dramatic shift for the Republican challenger as both candidates yesterday launched a final two-week campaign blitz in the deadlocked race for the White House.
On most issues facing the United States abroad, Romney largely agreed with how Obama conducted foreign policy. In Syria, he said he would not get the US involved militarily, even though he wants to arm the opposition.
Obama hit Romney again yesterday on his shifting positions, joking that his opponent was suffering from what he called "stage 3 Romnesia."
Romney's move to the center in Monday's debate showed he was determined not to cause further unease among war-weary Americans overwhelmingly in favor of ending the Afghan war.
He dramatically shifted his position and agreed with Obama that all US forces should be out of Afghanistan by the end of 2014.
