It was good entertainment nothing more, a fraudulent charade. Obama talked a lot about education and training because he received a lot of money from educational institutions, he claimed he pulled the troops from Iraq, maybe 1 leg but he still has another leg and 2 hands in Iraq, he claimed he created 5 million jobs at same time admitting every month the US lost 800,000 jobs monthly, you do the math, he mentioned giving tax cut to "middle class" but never the fact he extended Bush's upper class tax cut. He claimed he introduced the toughest Wall Street/Banking regulations since the great depression, on paper yes but he never added it was intentionally riddled with holes and loopholes some 10,000 confusing pages after pages that were meant to be never practical. He claimed that by closing loopholes in the tax system some magical revenue will appear he had four years to do that if he wanted to. Finally Obama never mentioned that his job advisor was an X-CEO of General Electric one of the largest companies that exported jobs to China.
None of them had specifics, they claimed a pie in the sky if they were giving the chance to rule the US for the next 4 years, Romney constantly argued since he was a business man he knew naturally how to run a business, but government is not business and the aim and the entire idea of a government is not about profit maximization. Romney claimed by cracking up on China (the people that pay his welfare) he will create jobs, if China was forced to inflate its currency, how?? It boggles the mind since China's currency will always be lower than the US dollar. He claimed he can create jobs by making America attractive for business (typical talk, of neo-liberals) how? by further deregulations and tax cuts and pandering to big business and naturally through water down environmental and labor laws and whooping the working class and making them so desperate that they will be willing to work for a loaf of bread. But he never mentioned the fact his buddies and his class exported US jobs to China in the first place and that himself at once a CEO for a company that mainly outsourced jobs to third world countries.
It was a good show for the peasant and wage slaves, next month they will vote for the same old system and 10 years from now nothing will change. The wage-class will be fucked and another 2 actors will debate again and the peasant will forget as usual and they will be fooled throughout their life and one day we will wake up old, tired, poor looking back at their life how many times they were fooled.
