My Take on the Debate
Wednesday night I watched the first of the three Presidential debates between Mitt Romney and Barack Obama. I watched as Romney shocked liberals and conservatives alike with his incredibly strong performance. Romney came out firing and didn't let up for the entire 90 minute debate. Romney looked confident, prepared, relaxed, and professional. Obama, on the other hand, looked rattled, stiff, uncomfortable, and unprepared. His moments speaking were laced with "um" and "uh". Romney knew what he wanted to say, and he said it. He called Obama to count for his failures in office, and explained why he would have done differently. This is the first time Obama has had to answer for himself...and he failed miserably. Romney looked and sounded like a man who was ready to be President of the United States, and Obama looked like he wasn't up to the task.

Romney certainly was impressive during the debate! I thought it was interesting how Obama didn't own up to the many things he didn't accomplish during his four years in office that he promised he would. Yes, he did have a large debt greeting him when he became president, but that doesn't account for all the debt he has racked up! http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-503544_162-57400369-503544/national-debt-has-increased-more-under-obama-than-under-bush/
