Obama Faces Flight of Women Voters - ABC News [ournewsa.blogspot.com]
En lo de day :pday con la camara: un peligro jaja
With new poll numbers showing his support receding among the women voters who had for so long been the anchor of his base, President Obama enters tonight's town hall-style debate with Republican challenger Mitt Romney at a campaign crossroads.
Romney has made steady gains in the polls since his decisive performance during the candidates' Oct. 3 meeting in Denver, Colo. A USA Today-Gallup survey released Monday showed Obama and Romney tied at 48 percent among women "likely" to vote in battleground states. Those figures echo the results of a Pew poll, published last week, that found Obama had fumbled an 18 point lead, leaving him dead even with Romney at 47 percent.
Tune in to ABCNews.com today for live-streaming coverage of the second 2012 Presidential Town Hall Debate in Hempstead, N.Y. Coverage kicks off with ABC News' live preview show at noon, and full debate coverage begins at 8 p.m.
If Romney can duplicate his Denver form this evening in Hempstead, N.Y., and see it coupled it with another equally bland showing from the president, the Republican could find himself in a position he would have hardly dreamed of two weeks ago.
Unlike in the days leading up to the first one-on-one, the campaigns have done less this week to "manage expectations" or cast doubts on their own candidates' abilities to articulate policy points or keep from The Obama campaign in particular has repeatedly promised a more engaged, aggressive showing.

"You should expect that [Obama's] going to be firm but respectful in correcting the record and the times we expect Mitt Romney will hide from and distort his own policies," campaign spokeswoman Jen Psaki said in the run-up. "He's energized and I expect he will also be making a passionate case."
