Presidential debate: Why should supporters vote for Obama again?

An audience member told President Obama they voted for him in 2008. What did the presdient do during the past four years years to earn another vote?

Obama said he promised to cut taxes for middle class families and small families and he did.

He said he would end the war in Iraq, go after al Qaida and Osama bin Laden is dead.

He passed health care reform, reigned in the excesses of Wall Street, created 5 million jobs and saved an auto industry on the brink of collapse.

“We are making progress,” Obama said.

Romney countered that if voters elect Obama, the nation will get a repeat of the past four years.

He said the president hasn’t dealt with immigration, Medicare, Social Security, cutting the deficit and more.

“The middel class is getting crushed under a president who doesn’t understand what it takes to get the economy working again,” Romney said.
