Carl rove argues that this debate gave mitt romney a chance to stand on equal footing. do you think the race has been fundamentally changes? was it always going to be tied in the end? >> the conventional wisdom about debates is a little oversimplified. there is about a four-point swing we can see based on debates. thats exactly what governor romney got more or less in terms of a shift toward him. in a close race, that can make a big difference. when a race is 10 or 15 points apart, four points i...

48%. but theres a lot of talk about polls this morning because they seem to be inconsistent, in some cases showing wide swings. in the case of national polls this week, three of six have president obama in the lead, but gallup has mitt romney up by six. whats going on? joining me is the ceo of the democratic polling firm, mark melman. great to see you. >> pleasure to be with you. >> gauge where you think the race is right now. >> i think theres a slight advantage for obama in the national number...

Interesting to hear mark melman, the democratic strategist talk as openly as he did about the democratic issues on the economy. >> i know mark. i was wondering, you know, when his phone was ringing, rahm emanuel on line one.

Gregg: put up on the screen and ill have you react to it. who do you trust to handle the economic policy, the g.o.p. leads 42%, democrats, 36% -- graduates have branded the g.o.p. as the party of "no" and maybe that is exactly, mark, what americans really want, no to higher spending, no to bigger deficits and no to more intrusive government and do those poll numbers reflect that. >> well i think, what the poll numbers reflect is this circumstances of the moment, and, people look around right now...

Well continue to follow it. >> now to politics, recent polls showing independent voters are so deeply concerned about the u.s. economy their support for democrats is dropping in a big way. the apgpk poll finding just 32% of independents want the democrats to retain control of congress, come november. way down from the number that supported the president, in 2008. and, nina easton, for "fortune" magazine and a fox news contributor and mark melman, ceo of the melman group, good to see you both, in...
