美国总统大选：奥巴马罗姆尼首场辩论

辩论之前，双方都表示会给候选人不给媒体过滤直接跟选民对话的机会。

The debate has higher stakes for Romney, as he is trailing the president in polls. Ben Ginsberg, a top Romney campaign aide, said Wednesday morning at a Denver briefing that the former Massachusetts governor will try to showcase his contrast with Obama in their visions for America for the next four years.

本次大选对罗姆尼来说风险很大，大选民调他落后奥巴马。本·金斯伯格，罗姆尼阵营高级顾问周三早晨在丹佛的简报会中说，这位前马萨诸塞州州长将展现出对未来四年他和奥巴马的不同见解。

There is some unfavorable buzz against the Obama campaign heading into the debate. Vice President Joe Biden, a top Obama surrogate, said Tuesday that the middle class had been "buried" during the past four years, a statement that Republicans immediately seized upon as an unwitting indictment of the Obama presidency.

辩论开始前，还有一些对奥巴马不太有利的风声。副总统乔·拜登，奥巴马的最高代理人，周二说中产阶级在过去四年遭“埋葬”，这一说法马上被共产党人抓住说奥巴马总统任期内经济衰败。

A 2007 videotape of then-Senator Obama, which showed him making comments perceived as "racially charged," also surfaced Tuesday night, rocketing through conservative media outlets.
