President Obama and Mitt Romney shared a stage for the first time in the presidential campaign Wednesday night. In a 90-minute debate, moderated by PBS's Jim Lehrer, Romney aggressively challenged the president on his record. The president defended his economic policies and challenged Romney to show that his plans wouldn't hurt the middle class.
