Hurricane Irene has left at least 22 people dead and caused an estimated billions of dollars in damages across the east coast. But the devastation is not as bad as many expected.  Flooding is widespread in Vermont and hundreds of people in the capital have been told to evacuate.

Even with thousands of power outages in the greater Washington area, federal workers are expected to be on the job today.  Damage in the nation's capitol was pretty minimal. 

You Decide 2012: President Obama is losing ground among white voters and women, and to a lesser extent, younger voters and liberals.  That's the analysis of Associated Press/GFK polls this morning.
