Though competent and tough, Rousseff faces voter fatigue after 12 years of PT rule, which many will remember, perhaps unfairly, for corruption scandals and the national team’s 7-1 drubbing by Germany in this year’s World Cup. But it is the government’s dismal economic record over the past four years that is causing the biggest problems for Rousseff’s campaign.
罗塞夫有能力也有韧劲，但她面临着工党执政十二年后的选民疲劳，许多人能记住的（尽管这不太公平）也许只有腐败丑闻以及巴西国家队在世界杯上被德国队以7比1血洗。但过去四年政府拙劣的经济记录才是影响罗塞夫选情的最大问题。
