Alex Castellanos, a Republican political analyst and consultant, said the Obama campaign has “two empty holsters” as President Obama faces Mitt Romney for the second presidential debate on Tuesday.

“Obama hasn't tried to get elected again, he’s been trying to stop Mitt Romney from getting elected,” Castellanos said on NBC’s Meet the Press.

He characterized Romney as “very acceptable,” rather than a “radical, baby-eating, grandma-killing Republican.”

“Barack Obama now has no campaign for the future about why he is indispensably needed,” Castellanos said. “Now his campaign against Mitt Romney has cracked. This is a man with two empty holsters. This campaign could collapse.”
