I'd also say Obama did. He backed himself up much better than the first debate. Romney was okay, but he wasn't so good for me.

Obama dominated Romney in this last debate. It makes sense though--the Town Hall style debates play to his strengths, and are the ones he was able to clobber McCain in last election. He played it much calmer than Romney, didn't get flustered or stumble/stutter, and kept a cheerful demeanor. Romney, on the other hand, got highly flustered, fought for control with the moderator, and spoke almost in a demeaning tone. This was the Mitt Romney I remember from the Republican primary debates. Score, 1:1. I guess we'll see who ends up on top in number three.

Both of them were showing alpha male tendencies and none of them had a clear edge in any of the topics discussed. Tie.

Depends on which side you ask. I agree that Obama did better than he did last time, didn't skirt around the questions as much. I was very surprised that he didn't say "ummm" once. I would just like to say that Obama did not say the Benghazi attack was terrorist act the day after. He lied and so did the moderator.

He didn't skirt around the questions? He couldn't even answer a simple yes or no question dealing with the Department of Energy. He kept rambling on about schools and alternative energy.

Would you agree that it was worse in the first debate? That's all I was saying.

Obama. Romney looked totally sick and weak and was stammering when he was called out out over that lie about the libya embassy attack.

at the end of the day people (general) doesnt look for versimilitude but more in composure confidence and promises,
Romney looked angry but was quelled when obama talked about how offened he was about romneys remark on his diplomat choice

I lean toward republican and i thought Obama did really good. like when Romney mentioned obamas pension (which invests in china and goes through cayman islands, same as romney but being a hypocrite by blaming romney and makes him look bad even though Obama does the same exact thing on a smaller scale of course) fund and obamas response was "no i dont need to look at mine cause mines not as big as yours" that was kinda funny. I also tho thought that the moderator shouldn't have corrected romney, i believe that was wrong. she should put no personal input in, she's a moderator, not a commenter or political annalist. it was very unprofessional of her. but i definitely believe Obama did better this debate, but the first one Romney whipped his ass. But Obama didn't do so good that it makes up for the last debate, I believe Romney is still ahead in the Debates. Like if i were to score it, romney scored 50 points in the last debate while obama scored 20. this debate obama scored 45 points while romney scored 30. which leaves romney 15 points in the lead (obama 65 points romney 80 points, with 50 being the maximum points)But thats my personal analogy just to make it easier for others to understand how i think they did.

I say Obama did, in all honesty.
