Presidential Debate: few things to watch for in Tonight's debate.

There is an article on CNN.com that suggests there are a couple of things to be weary about tonight, in the first of three presidential debates. They propose an interesting order on importance. Keep in mind that the listed topics, according to the Commission on Presidential Debates, are the economy, health care, the role of government and governing. With this in mind number two on their list of importance is "Can Romney get Libya into the discussion?" Do you think that this deserving of being ranked second on this list? Do you think that even if Romney brings this up it will be credible? What do you think Obama will say?

Same principle applies again at number 4, saying "Can Obama get women and Latinos into the discussion?" Credible if he brings it up? What do you think Romney will say? Deserving?

Overall, of the 5 presented do you think the order is correct? Should 2 and 4 even be listed? Who do you think will win this debate and why? As mentioned in number 5, do you think "zingers" will effect Romney's demeanor and stature? Do you think he will use them, and if so are they effective or not?
