ONE OPINION-NO WINNER

The story is the same: "Obama and Romney talk about how bad the other is." Both, as with the first debate, talked about the same topics, talked over each other and the moderator, and mostly talked about how bad the other is.
People will still ask the question of who "won" the debate ― as if anyone wins when unemployment is at 7.8 percent. Or when US incarceration numbers are dismal ― especially since 60 percent of those prisoners are nonviolent offenders. Or when we send young men and women overseas to die in wars that are not in the best interest of the country. Can anyone win when the dollar is becoming less and less valuable? Or when students are indebted to the government with loans they may never be able to pay back?
