Mitt Romney believes that the US president Barack Obama is for higher debts and strict rules. “This is not the right answer for America,”- he announced.
Obama, in his turn, stated that Romney advocates the riches and does everything to ease their lives and that has already resulted in recession which Romney inherited after entering the office in 2009.
During 90-minute debates, the first one in three months, Romney was trying to present Obama as huge cabinet democrat while the US president described his opponent as someone who helps the wealthy at the expense of the middle class.
Immediate CNN poll reviled such alignment of forces: Romney’s attacks reached the target more accurately, 67% of the registered voters who were watching the debates gave the victory to Romney in contrast to 25% of those who have chosen Obama. Moreover, 35% noticed that the discussion increased the probability of voting for Romney while just 18% were for Obama. However, 47% of American citizens reported that the meeting will not change their mind.
The showdown turned to be more heated when both Romney and Obama called the Law of 2010, which stipulates the renewed medical system and obliges the Americans must have medical insurance, Obamacare.
Romney drew attention to the fact that the US citizens have to spend more for their medical care while the choice is less. Obama objected that the plan was developed and proved to be efficient in Massachusetts where Romney worked as the governor.
More than 50 mln of Americans are still hesitating and can be influenced by either of the candidates. Romney was trying to show himself as the one who will be able to support the fragile economy. Obama, on the contrary, had to defend his position amid the US jobless rate which is above 8%.
Two opponents were fiercely discussing the federal budget deficit. Obama claimed that Romney’s policy would lead to lower taxations which can be beneficial for the riches. In return, Romney assured that he could cut the spending by means of federal grants for TV, such as PBS show and public television.
National poll from Bloomberg demonstrated that the Americans in the ratio of 43% to 33% suggest that their lives have improved with Obama.
