wolf. >>> martin, thanks very much. happening now, brand new poll results show president obama's approval rating passing a very important milestone. also, on this an ser vary of 9/11, we'll hear the president strongly defend one of the united states' deadliest and most effective weapons against would-be terrorists. and in a cnn exclusive, the brother of al qaeda's top leader now says there is a way to reconciliation and peace. i'm wolf blitzer. you're in "the situation room"." >>> all that coming up. we begin with a very public and new escalation of some tension between president obama and prime minister benjamin netanyahu. israeli sources tell me the white house at least for now has rejected prime minister netanyahu's request to meet with him later this month to discuss iran's nuclear program. the israelis were told a meeting isn't possible because of the president's schedule, schedule won't permit it even when they offer to have the prime minister come to washington from new york where he'll be addressing the united n

wolf? >>> martin, thanks very much. happening now, we're releasing our brand-new poll on the presidential race. did president barack obama get a convention bounce? you're about to find out. >>> also, mitt romney's now saying some nice things about at least parts of obama care. is he sensing a change in the campaign's momentum? >>> plus, the story behind the bear hug that literally lifted the president of the united states off the ground. i'll talk to the man who did it. i'm wolf blitzer. you're in "the situation room." >>> we begin with important news just in to "the situation room." our brand-new poll shows president obama receiving a significant bounce from the democratic national convention. he now leads mitt romney 52% to 46%. that's among likely voters nationwide. all this according to our brand-new cnn orc poll. let's get to our chief national correspondent, john king, over at the magic wall. >> a six-point national lead. the president benefited most from his convention. let's look deeper at the other numbers. let

martin. >>> the museum is not the only september 11th structure facing controversy. let me tell you about howard ludwick, he lost 658 employees on 9/11. and he tells wolftzer the name of the new building should be changed. >> howard, describe your feelings about the new one world trade center. it's now the tallest building in new york. >> look, i think it's important to rebuild. i just find it personally -- i find it odd that they would fame it one world trade center. frankly if they named it any other name i would think -- you know, the memorial is beautiful, but i don't know why they don't change the name. that seems so odd to me since the building i worked in was never called the north tower. it was called one world trade center. >> so you think they should change that? are you going to try to change that? >> i'm telling you, i'll tell anybody who wants to know. change the name. it's just weird. >> the full interview with howard lutnick and rudy giuliani tonight here on cnn. >>> and as both the president and mitt romney take time to visit the members of 9/11, new polls suggest an interesting and surprising turn in the presidential race. we'll have t

don't want to accuse wolf blitzer of going all single white female on me but these glasses are kind of my thing. no one, i mean no one else has them. except, of course, for -- steve martin, justin bieber and even snooki. come on, i'm the only one on cnn who rocks these glasses. >> okay, maybe tom foreman has them, too. he's the trend setter. tom foreman is the johnny depp of cnn. we're not the only one who noticed wolf's new look. if you googled wolf's glasses before today, this is what you'd come up with, wine glasses with wolves on them. i have several sets. if you google wolf glasses now, it's blitzer's new look all over the place. on the blogs, the news sites, the twitters, the facebooks, it's everywhere. there's probably a tumbler thing about it. i like the new glasses. for one thing they complement wolf's skinny jeans. i can hope he gets the same, warm generous reaction that i received when i got my glasses a couple years ago. >> here's what i love, i love that you have the nerdiest glasses you could because you think you're so gorgeous and hot that you have to take it down a few notches for america. i know you. i've talked to your mom. >> are these
