Romney's Cheat Sheet Romney: Jim, the president began this segment, so I think I get the last word.   (CROSSTALK)   LEHRER: Well, you’re going to get the first word in the next segment.   ROMNEY: All right. Well, but he gets the first word of that segment. I get the last word (inaudible) I hope. Let me just make this comment.   -------- President Obama: But under Governor Romney’s definition, there are a whole bunch of millionaires and billionaires who are small businesses.

So let's go through them one by one.   First of all, the Department of Energy has said the tax break for oil companies is $2.8 billion a year. And it's actually an accounting treatment, as you know, that's been in place for a hundred years. Now...   OBAMA: It's time to end it.
