He said he wouldn't raise taxes on the middle class and he seemed to dispel Obama's myth that he's cutting the deficit. He will also repeal Obamacare. At times he sounded like a buisnessman last night and maybe that's what the country needs to get going again. Obviously it could all be lip service, but the president didn't seem like he had any answers for any of it. I think someone else said it, Obama had his 4 years, lets see what the next guy can do.

The problem is it's ALL lip service. From both of them.
You hit the nail on the head that Romney is a businessman. A businessman who sent a lot of jobs overseas because it made sense financially. So I find some of his promises a bit tough to believe. But he isn't alone there. They're both full of s.hit.
I can't remember too many politicians ever saying their plan is to raise taxes on the middle class. He was just repeating the same lie most candidates say.
I'm just at the point where I'm tired of elections where we're left with choosing who will screw us over the least. I don't see a lot of people liking Romney for a reason other than they dislike Obama. And vice versa.
It's like we're voting for Homecoming King of the United States.
