About

Horses and Bayonets refers to a quip Barack Obama made during the final U.S. presidential debate before the 2012 election. After Mitt Romney criticized Obama for his plan to reduce the size of the Navy, asserting there were less military ships than there were at the beginning of World War I, Obama quipped, "Well, there are also fewer horses and bayonets." The moment was celebrated by Democrats and became a meme throughout the remainder of the election.
