And yet, you're being swayed by Mitt Romney, even though his administration would try to...

- Get rid of planned parenthood.
- Support the Blunt amendment, which would (and I can't even believe I'm typing this) restrict access to birth control by allowing any employer the right to deny health insurance coverage for any benefit based on a MORAL CONVICTION.
- Repeal the Affordable Care Act, which, if you don't know, would deny women and families access to affordable preventive care.
- Give states the right to ban contraception (oh, and he also believes that the Griswold v. Connecticut ruling was wrong).

And that's barely touching the surface of what he would do to women's rights.

I almost died tonight when he was talking about religious freedom in America for a minute--too bad his moral views are completely tainted by religion, and he wants to impose his morals on the country.

And yes, women's rights... his views there are disgusting. When a woman tells me she will vote for Romney, I wonder if they care about their own body at ALL. It's amazing that I, as a man, and more passionate about women's rights than some women.

I didn't watch it. Had to study a lot.

What was the outcome and the general consensus on how Barrack and Mitt performed?

Who's to say YOU will be when you're on you're own? Or will your parents support you for the rest of your life?

I never said that. I don't believe handing out food stamps is helping anyone. I feel like Romney will help the poor and middle class while Obama just wants to keep them on foodstamps.

I think the debate is too black and white. Government should have safety nets for people, but people should be the ones primarily responsible for themselves. The opportunities in this country are amazing, and the infrastructure is fantastic. There's no reason why people should stay poor if they didn't want to.

But WHERE, in any of his statements about the economy, did he lay out a specific plan about helping the lower and middle classes? He said a lot of words, but he NEVER mentioned anything about a concrete plan or details about that concrete plan. All he knows is all he has ever known: the life of the wealthy. It's his bread and butter.

Oh, wait...

I've figured you out. You're a totally selfish person. You are only out for yourself and for your wealthy family and do not give a **** about the common man. Let them rot, right? After all, as long as your ass stays cool, who cares about those commoners?

I mean...you are EXACTLY the type of person Mitt Romney is really trying to help. No wonder he'd have your vote...even if he'd basically **** over your rights in the process.

Mitt lied a lot and memorized some notecards so he sounded like a creepy polished creeper.

Barrack actually thought as he spoke.

Therefore, Mitt won.

Romney will help the Lower and middle class. He wants to get them off food stamps and get them better jobs. I honestly feel he will help everyone.

Yes... he truly cares.

Romney will be worse for this country than W Bush and you can quote me on that.

But let me guess... you think that W Bush was a good president.

I know a lot of people who lost a job under Obama. Including me. So it's hard for me to believe the economy is any better.

I think that's a little too partisan.

No one is selfish for having their beliefs about where the country should go. They just view different things as priorities. You'd be hard pressed to find an american who didn't want lower unemployment and a growing economy. Yet I bet you would label some of these people "selfish" as well

You guys don't even listen. My best friend is poor with a baby out of wedlock. I do care. I'm one of the few friends who stuck by her. I just think Romney will prevent those kind of situations from happening more than Obama

What does that even have to do with what I posted?

Pulling a Romney.

Except he hasn't shown HOW he will do this. I hear him saying "jobs jobs jobs" every other word, but saying JOBS doesn't give people jobs. In fact, he's not going to help people get "better jobs" when he's cutting student aid.

I hate how he kept criticizing Obama for the $90 billion (I think that was the figure) that went to green energy source companies... if you want to create jobs so badly (especially for college grads), green energy is an EXCELLENT industry to invest in. We have to reduce our dependency on other energy sources, and some day more green forms of energy will be extremely important. So there's JOBS there. Environment-related fields are increasing becoming (or will become) huge money makers, so that's the right thing to be supporting.
