. >> tom: the managering director for housing studies at harvard university is with us from cambridge, massachusetts. >> the housing market should be thought of at this point, even though it's national market, as two markets. there's the rental market which has been improving for over a year now and is pretty clearly on an upward trend and rents are rising, vacancy rates are falling so we're seeing a rental recovery and then the other part of the market you need to think about is the "for sale" market or homeowners and home buyers' market. and there we're starting to see life after a very long period where there was very little life except around periods of time when tax credits were offered to first-time buyers and then also eventually to tradeup buyers. we saw some life in the market just to see it fail again but now we're seeing the comeback without any kind of tax credits. >> with that in mind perhaps the economic incentives aren't what they used to be. prices have come down. attitudes toward homeownership have continued to erode, though. according to fannie mae in 201060% of peop

a new harvard university poll shows that president obama with a 17 point lead over mitt romney. it's a six-point gain since the end of 2011. unlike romney, president obama has been an honest broker with the younger generation. so have the democrats if you look at it. in 2007 the new democratic congress passed the college cost reduction and access act. the bill e lowered rates. the democrats worked on behalf of low income students and got president bush to sign a helpful piece of legislation. now republicans, what do they want to do? they want to undo all of that. congress paul ryan, they want to lock in the loan rate. lock it in at 6.8%. the budget proposal calls on congress to roll back certain recent expansions. it says these should be returned to the preccra levels. this marvelous budget as mitt romney calls it makes millions of low income college students pay double interest on their loan payments.

ja is a practicing physician and professor of health policy at harvard university. he says some patients stay an extra week, some months, some, like barbara, stay years. it isn't good for the patients who may not get the rehab or specialized care they need. >> there are thousands, if not tens of thousands of people who get stuck in the hospital who are well enough to go to someplace else. it's incredibly expensive for them to be in the hospital. >> they're taking a bed from someone who might actually need it more than they do? >> they're using a bed that they really shouldn't be in, and that's making it harder for somebody else who is potentially and likely much sicker. it makes it harder for that person to get into the hospital. >> is the problem getting worse? >> i think the problem is getting worse. >> reporter: no one keeps track of the exact number of permanent patients, but government data shows the number of uninsured hospital patients in need of long-term care increased 20% from 2005 to 2009. we spoke with officials at dozens of hospitals across the country

all companies now -- this is just as efficient -- engage in extensive outsourcing and now the harvard university press does not edit the books its publishes. its outsources them -- not all but it's done -- a couple of mine, several of mind, and i questioned it with my latest book. ... and because, you know, if they come to me whose entire business is editorial work, they're really good at it and they're very last. and you know, it is much, much, much easier to do rewriting and editing digitally done by hand. i mean, it's extraordinary. i do a lot of writing and a lot of rewriting of my staff. and it's just so much easier and so effortless to rewrite on a computer, words by hand, you have to have it retyped constantly. so digitization has somewhat not just for access, but also for authors and is greatly simplified research. it's an extraordinary room for judges. they throw at us cases that we don't want a thing about it all. and their lawyers so they are very cagey. they tell us just what they think we need to know to vote for them and it's often very little. so i go online. and i look at the pro

a separate harvard university study underscored how youthful support could shift by november.ay they are undecided. we have two views on how the campaigns reach out to young voters this year and how strategy has changed since 2008. patrick gaspard is the executive director of the democratic national committee. and alex schriver is chairman of the college republican national committee. welcome to you both. so you saw this long gap, alex schriver, how do you close this gap? we're saying president obama leads mr. romney 61% to 33%. >> well, i think's a misconception out there that the democrats have a lock on young voters. that's not true. republicans have won the youth vote three times in the modern era, tied it twice more. 2008 was an anomaly, obama won the youth vote 2-1. we've seen the number come back in the midterm elections in 2010. there are eight million new voters that have come of age since 2008. these are young people who saw their older brothers and sisters get caught up in hope and change in 2008 and are sitting here three and a half years later not better off. so a
