Word of the Day after the Second Presidential Debate

After watching the Second Presedential Debate last night, I found today's "Word of the Day" particularly apt:

Circumlocution \sir-kuhm-loh-KYOO-shuhn\, noun:
The use of many words to express an idea that might be expressed by few; indirect or roundabout language.
