A Slight Edge for Romney

I thought Romney did quite well in the first debate even if many of his points left a vagueness at the end. He covered that vagueness with an air of certainty. He was aggressive and spoke well. The President did best on the social issues. Both used some creative accounting in their proposals. The only thing that we can really glean from this debate is personal characteristics. If you are a follower of the issues you know that many of the answers were insufficient.
Both candidates missed major opportunities to score points but I think that may have been out of a desire to not appear petty.
