Romney's mis-statements made Obama the winner

While the president missed several opportunities to point out several errors the Governor Romney made, mistakes that could have sealed the deal for President Obama, the third presidential debate was still won by President Obama.
Within the first half hour, it became obvious that when it got down to the gist of the actions, Romney has either been lying to the GOP base and is in lock-step with the president in most foreign policies or he lied Tuesday night about his stance on Egypt, Syria, Afghanistan and even Iran. So I'm sure there will be a lot of spin today and probably for the next few days by the GOP as they try to get Romney back to his old position of no timeline in Afghanistan, a no-fly zone in Syria, and allowing Israel to attack Iran in an attempt to truly cripple their nuclear military capabilities. But if that's because Romney really doesn't care much about foreign policies, which is a definite possibility since he's basically a business man, that's very scary due to the advisers he has working for him. And this is one of two very easy opportunities that President Obama missed.
The first was when Romney talked about the Obama Middle East tour, one that Romney is calling "The Apology Tour." Imagine if the president had told the truth and said, "Governor Romney, during the Bush years, it was thought by many in the Arab world and some here at home that the U.S. was at war with Islam, and I wanted to assure them and all the American people that wasn't the policy of the government. But Governor Romney, with 17 of your 24 advisers being part of the Bush Administration, how would you assure them, and why should we think your policies would be different from the former president's policies?" It would have been a devastating blow.
The other point was a very simple point that Romney made that Obama may not have had a chance to question, but Romney did say that a 5% cut in all domestic spending was his way of balancing the budget. But later Romney said that education and Research and Development (R&D) needed to be strengthened. So does education and R&D need more money or not?
But even with these missed opportunities, Romney seemed unsure about where he stood on many areas, or at least there wasn't any difference between his position and Obama's. He lied about his position on the auto-bailout, which the president pointed out. And because Romney never seemed comfortable, or really didn't want to talk about foreign policies, it gave President Obama a fairly easy win.
