Gov. Romney is viewed as the guy who will finish off what's left of the middle class, taking away Social Security and getting rid of what affordable health care exists from Obama's minimal and very expensive legislation. And, oh, yeah, Romney and his conservatives don't "believe" in the minimum wage; in fact, they want to completely abolish it.
Neither candidate is telling the voter what to expect the next four years on the economy, foreign policy, health care, equal pay in the private sector for women. Romney thinks women live in binders like some abstract thought. (That's the polite version.) Obama passed the Lilly Ledbetter Act to help women in the public sector but stopped short for helping women in the private sector. It's that stopping short Obama is so famous for doing that ticks off the voters, especially the undecided.
Romney and Ryan are complete fools when it comes to foreign policy. Their idea of America in the world is to "be strong" and start yet more wars, even nuke the enemy. Who is going to pay for all these new war fronts? It's the Bush era cowboy approach, totally disinterested in the difficult but long term more effective paths like diplomacy, negotiations and sanctions. Romney and Ryan seem to forget that all that atomic fallout blows up into the upper atmosphere and blows over here to America, contaminating our farm lands and residences. What are these guys thinking? Romney and Ryan both have shit for brains.

President Obama acquitted himself quite well in the second debate, commanding the room. Independents like me are waiting to see tonight if the same Obama will show up. If he does, then the next question is, "But will he commit and actually do something strong and dramatic that needs doing when he gets his second term?"
Here, Jon Stewart interviews Obama, minus the Romney over talking and screaming, where Obama can make his case for another four years. All I can say, if I don't hear about women getting equal pay in the private sector from Obama tonight - a great economic stimulus - I'm voting in my state's early voting this Thursday for the only real progressives: the Green Party. Obama has his last chance to get serious and commit the Democratic Party to this goal for women. Women are fed up with the Democrat Party, waiting their turn for 40 years now, hearing every presidential cycle, "Next time, next time, we will put it on the agenda to get you equal pay."
