Barack Obama amachita bwino, koma Mitt Romney sakuipiraipira.
“ANTHU aku America awona mtsogoleri wawo usikuuno—purezidenti wamphamvu, wokhazikika ndi wosankha,” anafuula motero Jim Messina, manijala wa kampeni yachisankho ya Barack Obama, pambuyo pa mkangano wachiŵiri wotsimikizirika pakati pa ofuna kupikisana nawo pa Long Island pa October 16. Anali wolondola: Bambo Obama anali ndi usiku wabwino. Koma mawuwo analinso kuvomereza mwachidwi kuti pamakangano am'mbuyomu, milungu iwiri yapitayi, a Obama adawoneka ngati osachita chidwi komanso osakopa. Pa chochitika chimenecho, anali Mitt Romney yemwe anali ndi mawonekedwe abwino-wabwino kwambiri kotero kuti adachotsa chipereŵero chake chomwe adakhala nacho kwa nthawi yaitali pamavoti. Ndipo mwatsoka kwa purezidenti, mtundu wodzidalira, wololera komanso wamphamvu wa Bambo Romney yemwe adawonekera pakukumana kwawo koyamba adawonekeranso kachiwiri, kusokoneza zomwe Mr Obama adatsitsimuka.
Mu sabata pambuyo pa mkangano woyamba, Bambo Romney adakwera kuchokera ku 3.1 kuperewera kwa chiwerengero cha zisankho zapadziko lonse zomwe zinapangidwa ndi RealClearPolitics, webusaitiyi, kupita ku 1.5% kutsogolera-yoyamba chaka chino. Ziwerengero zake zatsika pang'ono - pafupifupi a RCP tsopano akuwonetsa kuyandikira - ndipo sanali amphamvu kwambiri pazisankho zamayiko osinthika. Komabe, a Romney asintha mpikisano kukhala kutentha kwakufa.
Kuchita kovomerezeka kwa wotsutsayo kunakwaniritsa zinthu ziwiri mumtsutso woyamba uja. Choyamba, adalimbikitsa omutsatira, zomwe zidapangitsa ovota kuti awonjezere zomwe achita ku Republican patsiku lachisankho. Chachiwiri, zisankho zingapo zidawonetsa kuti azimayi, omwe m'mbuyomu adakonda Mr Obama ndi malire akulu, adaganiza kuti a Romney anali munthu wowoneka bwino komanso wodekha. Mu kafukufuku wina, wa Pew Research Center, adalumpha ndi mfundo 18 pakati pa ovota achikazi kuti agwirizane ndi purezidenti.
Pamtsutso wachiwiri, Bambo Romney mwachibadwa anayesa kuteteza zopindulazi ndipo a Obama anayesa kuzisintha. Purezidenti anali wotsutsana kuyambira pachiyambi, kunena kuti a Romney adalipira msonkho wochepa kwambiri, adathandizira kuchotsedwa kwa ntchito za ku America, adawononga dala moyo wake kuti apeze ndalama mwamsanga panthawi yomwe anali wochita bizinesi payekha, ndipo analibe mapulani mu ndondomekoyi. White House kupitilira kuwononga olemera ndi ndalama zapakati - zonse poyankha funso loyamba. Mwina nthawi yake yabwino idafika pomwe a Romney adamuimba mlandu kuti akuchita ndale ndi imfa ya akazembe anayi aku America ku Libya mwezi watha. Poyitanitsa kuphulika kotsimikizika kwaukali wolungama, adalengeza kuti mlanduwo ndi "wokhumudwitsa", zomwe zidapangitsa Mr Romney kuwoneka ngati wogwiritsa ntchito mwayi.
Koma a Romney adayankha molimba mtima za Mr Obama, ndi zosokoneza zambiri, kuloza zala komanso kudzudzula kwawo. Iye adalemba mndandanda wowononga wa malonjezo onse omwe pulezidenti walonjeza, ndipo alephera kusunga, okhudza kukonza chuma. Anabwereza mobwerezabwereza kuti 23m Achimerika akufunafuna ntchito, kuti gulu lapakati linali "kuphwanyidwa", kuti 47m Achimereka anali pa masitampu a chakudya, ndi zina zotero. Iye anangotchula mawu akuti, “Sitiyenera kukhazikika.”
Amuna onsewa adapempha dala kwa ovota azimayi. A Romney adazemba kuti mnzake, a Paul Ryan, adagwirizana ndi mkangano wapulezidenti sabata yatha, kuti olemba anzawo ntchito ayenera kunena ngati inshuwaransi yazaumoyo yomwe adapatsa antchito awo ikukhudzana ndi kulera. Iye anafotokoza kuti monga bwanamkubwa wa Massachusetts sanangolemba ganyu mkazi monga mkulu wa antchito ake, komanso anamulola kuti azigwira ntchito maola omasuka ndi ana.
Nayenso a Obama adanena mwachidwi kuti bilu yoyamba yomwe adasaina kuti ikhale lamulo ndi imodzi yomwe imapangitsa kuti amayi asamavutike kumangirira milandu chifukwa cha tsankho. Iye adati kudana kwa Bambo Romney ndi Planned Parenthood yomwe imagwira ntchito m’zipatala za amayi, ipangitsa kuti anthu asakhale ndi mwayi woyeza matenda a khansa komanso kulera. Ananenanso zambiri za zopinga zomwe akazi a m’badwo wa amayi ake ndi agogo ake amakumana nazo, zomwe ankayembekezera kuchotsa chifukwa cha ana ake aakazi awiri.
Ngakhale zisankho zingapo "nthawi yomweyo" zidawonetsa kuti a Obama apambane pang'ono, a Romney sananene chilichonse chomwe chingasinthe malingaliro ake atsopano omwe adapeza pakati pa owongolera. Pakhala pali chidwi chofananira pazomwe zachitika masabata angapo apitawa, zolemba zina za Republican. Kumbali ina, kuwongolera zachuma kwachotsa zina mwazovuta zomwe ma Republican amatsutsa Purezidenti. Kumbali inayi, kukhazikika kwa Mr Romney pamikangano kwasokoneza mzere waukulu wa demokalase, kuti ndi wolemera kwambiri komanso wosasamala kuti amvetsetse anthu wamba aku America. Izi zimasiya mpikisano wa komwe wakhala kuyambira masika: pafupi kwambiri, mwina ndi mwayi wocheperako kwa Mr Obama.
