Democratic Presidential Candidates Debate in Texas (3/3)



 大意
The two candidates talks about the crisis they face.


 听写
Asked about her criticism aboutof the US military surge in Iraq, Clinton said achieving progress by adding more US troops is not the result the United States should be seeking. One of the best moments for both candidates came at the end when they were asked to describe a crisis they had faced. Obama spoke of being raised by a single mother and overcoming challenges as a youth. Clinton said the crisis crises she has faced are well known but that these were nothing compared to the difficulties faced by soldiers who had been meant maimed in combat overseas, and the problems faced by workers, home owners and people in need of health insurance. Clintonwants once held a large lead here in Texas, and in Ohio, the other large state which holds its primary on March 4th. But Obama has won the last 10 contests in a rolerow, and has now polled pulled even with her in the polls. Analysts agree that Clinton needs wins in both states in order to remain viable, while whereas Obama only needs to maintain his momentum to stay in the lead.

 翻译
当C被问及美军进入伊拉克问题的指责是,她说通过增军获得进展不是美国应该追求的结果。两位候选人表现最精彩的时刻是最后讲述他们曾面临的危机。O提到了由单身妈妈养大和小时候所克服的困难。C说她面对的危机众所周知,但这些与在海外作战的受伤士兵的困难、工人、房屋所有者和需要保险援助的人所面对的问题相比微不足道。C一度在德州和将与3月4日进行初选的O州获得大规模领先,但O已经连续赢得了10场胜利,并在民调中和C平分秋色。分析家认为C必须在两个州都获得胜利才能继续进行,而O只需把握他的优势就可以继续保持领先。


 总结
反省……
