Latest pols have been the best Romney has mustered.

And hopefully they are going to be the best that he will muster. It is indeed a concern that Obama bombed during the first debate. But this is a best of 3 with a wildcard playoff. Many have said, particularly the independents, that Biden won in the wild card playoff. He has halted the slide as evidenced from the latest Rasmussen Tracking poll out today (if Rasmussen poll says Romney has slowed down, I would believe so because Rasmussen's voter sample is weighted more towards the Republicans).

Like you, I was expecting to see a bigger impact on Obama's numbers from the jobs report. And I can also agree with Sr K that over the course of this month there will be more economic numbers coming and they are expected to be positive.

On Tuesday, the nation would be watching very carefully what Obama has to say about the first question that Candy Crowley is expected to ask and that is Libya. I hope he explains the decision making process, tells the American people how that was followed in the case of Osama and how that was applied here also. Americans know well that not every issue goes to the White House directly. But they want to hear it from their President.

I have a feeling that he will bounce back on Tuesday. He will do so if he is less professorial, more Clintonesque where he needs to use short sentences to describe complex issues like Romney/Ryan's 20% tax cut and why the math does not add up. People would also be expecting from him what he would do to create jobs, a jobs plan.

Anyway, TARA have a nice weekend, cheer up and you and all others know that Obama has been there before and has recoiled very well.
