So, whether President Barack Obama or Mitt Romney prevails in November, the next president will be constrained by the twin need for urgent economic stabilization and longer-term reforms. And, with headwinds from Europe and a synchronized global slowdown, the candidates will have no choice but to pursue, at least initially, similar economic policies to restore dynamic job creation and financial stability.
因此，不管现任总统奥巴马还是罗姆尼在11月胜出，新总统都将受到双重压力的约束——一边是急需稳定经济，一边是长期改革。而在欧洲危机和世界各国同时放缓的压力下，两位候选人别无选择，只能采取相似的经济政策重建就业创造活力和金融稳定，至少在任期开始时是如此。
