All through the debate, Romney failed to specify any of his plans or tell the truth to the pont where even people on his side said he was lying. Although it seems a little bias, it is true. This article calls this "Romney's Sick Joke". The article says that, "What Mr. Romney did in the debate, in other words, was, at best, to play a word game with voters, pretending to offer something substantive for the uninsured while actually offering nothing." In my eyes, Romney insulted Americans by playing with his words trying to falsely make us believe he has a plan. If Romney had a plan that honestly seems promising, he would have no problem in sharing the details with the nation, which he should do anyway. He could be hiding the details just because he knows it would upset most of the voters costing him the election. Then this makes me think, is he in the presidential race to persuade the most voters or on a mission to improve America? Why else would he lie?
Then I can criticize Obama in his responses. "One could wish that Mr. Obama had made this point effectively in the debate. He had every right to jump up and say, “There you go again” There were many times where Obama could have jumped in and said "There you go again" and retaliate on the false remarks of Romney. However, out there we saw out there was our president with a soft demeanor, being controlled and dominated by a liar.
