Obama 1 Romney .25

The totals are now Obama Biden 1.75 Romney Ryan1.5

Romney gets a 1/4 point for some legitimate digs at Obama and for being in favor of affirmative action.  That was a beautiful moment when Romney said "get me some female candidates for my jobs so we can have a balanced administration".  Will Romney appoint Supreme Court justices who believe likewise?

Obama held Romney's feet to the fire and showed his numbers do not add up.  How do you cut tax rates for everybody, eliminate taxes on interest and dividends and capital gains, increase defense spending and pay for it by limiting deductions to $25,000?  That does not add up and Romney had no rebuttal for it when pressed.  He just said it adds up!  This is a guy who knows how to run a business?  or was his business asset stripping which doesn't take as much skill.

Also, how does repealing Obamacare reduce the cost of health care to employers and create jobs?  Health costs and the cost of health insurance are steadily rising in the current system, the uninsured are still not getting preventive or early care in the current system; Obamacare tries to control these costs and may or may not be successful, but the one thing I know is that there is nothing in the current system that even tries to control these costs.  No one who is not hiring because of Obamacare would be hiring without Obamacare.  Anyone who says otherwise is not telling the truth.

Obama gets the full 1 point for pointing out what he has accomplished, the challenges he faced upon coming into office and promising to protect the things he cares about.

I may have missed it, but I don't think I heard any questions about Medicare (I tuned in 3 or 4 minutes late)
