WASHINGTON (AP) -- Think of Tuesday night's presidential debate as a championship fight rematch.

Republican challenger Mitt Romney won the first bout, as President Barack Obama failed to counterpunch.

Then came what's known in boxing as the undercard, the vice presidential debate.

Incumbent Joe Biden came out swinging at the opening bell, although GOP challenger Paul Ryan counterpunched just as hard.

Obama-Biden supporters were relieved.

The Obama campaign promises the president will be more aggressive Tuesday.

But this time the candidates and the moderator won't be the only people in the ring when the 90-minute debate begins at 9 p.m. EDT.
