-tested. i would be a little worried if i was a romney supporter right now going into this particular type of debate where empathy for the common person is on display or lack thereof. these are questions posed by audience members that are undecided voters, and the question that the viewer will inevitably ask is who among the two men is relating to the life situation of these individuals. i don't think it takes a rocket scientist to figure out that the person who was raised by a single mother, whooz grandfather was unemployed and had student loans to pay off a few years ago is going to be able to make that connection better than the guy who's daddy was a governor and multi-millionaire and raised in a private school. >> in all fairness not all wealthy people close their minds? the kennedys are not scraping pennies together, and certainly they are considered one of the most fill lan tlop pick families of all time. it's who you are in time. it's separate and apart from george romney. it's who mitt romney is. >> tamron, there are examples of very wealthy individuals who have became president an

specifically, that would imply there's been a change in the race in mr. romney's favor. right now, though, that poll does sort of stick out. it's an outlier in terms of being more favorable to romney than everything else with polls like this at the combined state level. all of the national polls released today show the race is essentially a dead heat. tracking shows romney up by 2. the rasmussen poll has romney up by 1. investors business daily has the race at a tie. and the new abc news "washington post" poll shows obama up by 3. here's where it gets interesting. a ton of polling stuff comes out every day. every day there's at least one super interesting thing. and right now the thing most important, i think most intriguing in the data out of all the snapshots of the race is this. this right here is probably the most interesting thing. abc news and "washington post" polled voters nape didn't just ask who do they like. they asked which candidate would be better on a series of issues. here's what they found. on the issue of the economy, it's president obama by 4. taxes, president obama by
