Boca Raton, Florida: Cavalry comments galloped online as a shot by President Barack Obama about "horses and bayonets" became the most talked about moment of the final presidential debate.
Online sparring between supporters of President Obama and Republican challenger Mitt Romney spiked during Monday's debate after Mr Romney derisively remarked that "our Navy is smaller now than (at) any time since 1917."
President Obama countered that Mr Romney didn't understand the modern military, saying "we also have fewer horses and bayonets" to laughter from the audience.
The exchange quickly trended on Twitter as #horsesandbayonets and within minutes of the debate's close a CavalrymenForRomney.com website featured a forlorn warrior on horseback holding a Romney banner on a pike.
