10/17/12
The presidential debate on Tuesday helped one undecided questioner from the audience make up her mind.
Susan Katz, who asked GOP nominee Mitt Romney how he would operate differently than former President George W. Bush, said Wednesday she is going to vote for President Barack Obama.
I think [Obama] has matured tremendously, Katz said on CNN. Theres no question that we expected more from him. I voted for him the first time, I had great hopes for him. Im disappointed, and when and I got the phone call from the Gallup poll, I was truly, truly undecided.
I saw in President Obama someone who has ripened with time. He deserves another four years to see his vision through.
Katz said she was disappointed Romney decided to go back to attack the president instead of immediately answering her question.
I was disappointed that the governor chose to first rebut what the president had been saying prior to my question being addressed to him, Katz said. That seems to be his style. I found that disappointing. I thought the governor did a good job of laying out some ways he would function differently than President Bush had. Basically, throughout the night, I found it disconcerting that the governor needed to control things. That was a problem for me, and that was evident in the way he first answered my question.
