It's hard to escape the presidential campaign these days. We are some 50 days from Election Day. The aftermath of the tragic death of our ambassador to Libya and riots all over the Arab world could become decisive in the campaign. Americans' satisfaction with the way things are is still low at 30 percent, according to Gallup, but it's the highest satisfaction rating in three years. That, too, could be decisive. And a new report on poverty in America finally gets the two candidates to talk about the poor in video messages to the faith-based, anti-poverty group, Circle of Protection. Roland Martin and the Washington Watch roundtable discuss the impact of the latest polls and the politics of the the 2012 Presidential election. This week's Washington Watch roundtable features Michelle Bernard, president and CEO of the Bernard Center for Women; Cornell Belcher, political strategist and Obama 2012 pollster; Elroy Sailor, CEO of the J.C. Watts Companies and a Republican strategist; and Sirius XM Radio's "The Black Eagle," Joe Madison.
