Voting for romney. and i think that's going to help the turnout chances for the republican party, but does that mean that independents suddenly think he's different or even democrats might be peeled aaaway? that's not what we're seeing evidence of yet. that could change sure enough tomorrow night, next week. >> despite all of the conversation on the first presidential dethe bait, we are back to basically where we were before the conventions and before that debate. there are some people, very few people who still have not made up their minds why we really don't know. if this is about the econom...

Has been in years. there's a reason republicans want to talk about libya. this election is about jobs and the economy p-but they're not winning on that, so they're grasping at straws and talking about libya. if you plook at the underlying metrics how people feel about the economy, remember bill clinton's speech at the democratic convention, it takes a while before feel it. when they do, they really do. now they feel the improvement that president obama, because of the bailout of the auto industry and other things, can point to as his own. >> anne, part of what some people believe the problem w...

Acceptable alternative, the strong debate performance and better press coverage. he may be strong enough in ohio and other battle grounds, voters look at him as acceptable. that's why we heard so much about bain capital and that's why we heard so much about a swiss bank account, his personal taxes, et cetera. it's going to be interesting to see if the obama campaign tries to drive some of that personable stuff. if they don't and governor romney is acceptable that may give him enough of a chance to win ohio and enough of the battlegrounds to get just over 270. >> there you have it. he's still u...
