发布时间：2016-03-03 编辑：查字典英语网小编

　　President Obama thumped Mitt Romney in the 2012 election, but now their political standings seem reversed. 　　2012年美国大选，奥巴马击败了米特罗姆尼，而现在他们的政治地位却似乎有所反转。　　During a summer in which Democratic candidates are keeping their distance from an unpopular president, Romney is emerging as one of the Republican Party s most in-demand campaignsurrogates. 　　Over three days in mid-August, Romney will campaign for GOP Senate and gubernatorial candidates in West Virginia, North Carolina and Arkansas, aides said. In September, he is planning visits to the presidential swing states of Colorado and Virginia. 　　Romney is filling up his October schedule, as well. Senate hopefuls in Iowa and New Hampshire are eager for him to return before November s midterms, while Romney is weighing trips to other Senate battlegrounds. At least one high-profile Senate campaign said it has produced a television advertisement featuring Romney ready to air in the fall. 　　Democrats don t want to be associated with Barack Obama right now, but Republicans are dying to be associated with Mitt Romney, said Spencer Zwick, a longtime Romney confidant who chaired his national finance council. 　　For a party without a consensus leader -- nor a popular elder statesman like Democratic former president Bill Clinton -- Romney is stepping forward in both red and blue states to fill that role for the GOP. 　　There s a pretty big void in the party right now for national leaders, and Romney s in a unique position, having been around the track, to help fill that void, said Scott Reed, a veteran GOP strategist who oversees the US Chamber of Commerce s political operation.
