6. Agree With You. President Obama should focus more on the optics, then trying to fact check Romney

I think President Obama got bogged down in trying to be "right" and explaining himself. Make your point, contradict Romney, but don't count on Romney acknowledging his error or lie. Romney is the most skilled liar I have ever seen, which is why even Republicans don't trust him. He won the RNC primaries by attacking right wing candidates from the right because he has no shame. Look at immigration. He attacked Perry and Gingrich from the right, then is now attacking President Obama from the left by promising immigration reform, which he never ever details.
