(FILES) Presidential candidates Ross Perot (L) Bill Clinton (C) and George Bush (R) answer questions 11 October, 1992 at the athletic center at Washington University in St. Louis, Missouri. The 2nd presidential debate was a three-way affair, with Ross Perot as the independent candidate facing incumbent President George Bush and his future successor Bill Clinton. One image proved costly for President Bush, who conspicuously looked at his watch during a question from the audience. Years later, he would confess his detestation of the exercise: "Maybe that's why I was looking at it (my watch), thinking: 'Only ten more minutes of this nonsense'". (Photo by J.
