Based on the past two presidential debates and what I have read and heard about, I have concluded that Mitt Romney is ahead in the election as of right now. I've noticed that president Obama has been having some trouble defending his presidency the past four years. I mean, he said he was going to create a ton of new jobs and unemployment is still at 8%. On top of that, I have also observed that Romney just seems so much more confident and enthusiastic about what he is saying. Obama is more reserved, which is fine, but I feel like Romney and his 5 point plan are going to work because he is so fired up about it. I also feel that Americans trust that Romney knows what he is doing because he has been a businessman his whole life and is much more credible about knowing about business then Barack Obama who has been a politician his whole career. Also, although Obama did much better in the second debate, the clear winner of the first one was Romney who seemed much more prepared than Obama.
