>> they're the balance that will determine the outcome and how many of them show up. >> and so, a debate like last night, first of all, that is an intimate debate, they're standing and can move closer to the audience. they're back and north, my goodness. >> uh-huh. >> and how does that bode for both candidates? >> overall, i thought president obama did certainly a lot better than the first debate and probably helped himself and might be on the libya question a bit and we'll see that on the third debate on foreign policy. and i don't think it was a game changer for either of them and romney is still close. the momentum is still with romney to some degree and i don't think president obama -- he certainly didn't stop romney's momentum, he may have slowed it but this is a concept till. >> and the focus or scope of things in this big political time, how important are the debates at all? do people really wait and see in. >> yes and no. it's -- for, you know, for political junks that, you know, live for politics and focus on every word and mannerism. for the average voter, they get lost in the tall woods of, you know, policy issues. and i am not sure they really make that much difference, unless there is a clear distinction between the, quote, winner and loser as there was in the first debate. >> the first one and how damaging was that? >> and it was damaging for president obama and he has recovered to some extent. my view can they will show that it didn't really change the dynamics that much and -- to lose. >> let's talk about the high moments for governor romney. was he looked strong on the issues? >> yeah. >> the biggest quickness president obama faces and governor romney is focusing on is the economy and a lack of competency economic recovero his own track and nobody has the answer on what the fiscal flip will lead to and the average voter out there is only a small% and those are the people most concerned about jobs and the economic future and many of them are scared and doesn't bode well for president obama. >> a lot of people were waiting for the 47% to make a appearance in the close head. >> i thought the closing remark by president obama was one of the stronger comments and governor romney didn't have the response to it and that is a flaw in the romney game plan that this videotape from last mail reveals him having a lot of conden sing for the 47%, shall we y. >> and this is dr. ron deeton, political science and directorate prince georges community college. glad to have you on the show. >> thank you for having me. an offhand reference to, quote, binders full of women by mitt romney was a hot topic on social media. he made the remark while explaining that as governor of massachusetts he had more women in his cabinet than any other state governor. >> we took a concerted effort to find women. i went to a number of women's groups and said can you help us find folks and they brought us binders full of women and -- . >> internet users are quick to jump on something like that, someone started a bindersfullofwomen.com and it has 30,000 followers. more than 1,000 puppeteers will join to defend public broadcasting and big bird a couple of days before election day on the national mall. it's called the million puppet march and is planned for november 3rd and it was when he opposed borrowing money from chin on to pay for things like pbs and big bird. and we're going to use some of your tweets and facebook posts. the fox 5 news edge 2012 will focus on national candidates and issues during the final two weeks of the campaign. it starts next monday at 6:30 p.m. on fox 5. d.c.'s new ethics panel voted to launch a preliminary investigation of governor jim graham. they will look into whether he may have violated couple or district ethics rules while serving on the metro board in 2008. and an independent report found he that he mingled his duties by attempting to a land deal to the contract. he claims to have done nothing illegal. the plan to have full wireless access on metro is delayed ain. and metro was supposed to have the project completed this week but it's requested an extension until late 2015. metro needs to ensure all updated safety measures are in place following the 2009 red line crash. metro offers wireless service at 20 of the station. the 495 express lanes are set to open later this year. >> this morning, we're getting a look at how express lanes will work and melanie alnwick has more with a preview. >> reporter: and we're here in the operations center and what will be the operation center for the 95 express lanes scheduled to open as well and i want to show you this big board here and can you see that?
