WILLIAMSBURG, Va. â€"  As President Obama began to hunker down at a plush resort here for three full days of debate prep, his campaign team signaled the incumbent may steal a page from Vice President Joe Biden and show a more aggressive tone in Tuesday's second face-to-face showdown with Republican Mitt Romney.
"Governor Romney has been making pitches all of his life and he knows how to say what people want to hear whether that was during his time at Bain or during the dozens of town halls he did during the primary," said Obama campaign spokeswoman Jen Psaki said Saturday. "His running mate also left him vulnerable on a number of issues -- admitting there was a $ 5 trillion tax cut, after he denied it, but again failing to explain how they would pay for it, leaving women worried about their ability to make choices about their own health care and failing to articulate their plan for winding down our presence in Afghanistan."
It's significant that Psaki previewed the president's next clash with Romney with an immediate mention of his time at Bain, a word Obama never mentioned during the first presidential debate, in Denver.
The president turned in an effort that left even some of his own advisers wondering about a lackluster performance, and preparations for the second debate are critical with Democrats eager to see him stop the momentum Romney has gained in several key states.
Also noteworthy is that Psaki mentioned Romney's running mate, Rep. Paul Ryan, R-Wis., who faced intense pressure from Biden literally from the first minutes of their one and only vice presidential debate, this past Thursday.
Biden hit Ryan on everything from tax cuts to Iran policy with a ferocity that left Republicans complaining about interruptions and eye-rolling that GOP officials believe will ultimately backfire with undecided voters because of its negativity.
White House officials though are raving about Biden's performance with so many superlatives that they are openly acknowledging that the vice president did a better job of explaining the president's agenda than Obama himself.
On Friday, White House Press Secretary Jay Carney, a former Biden aide, opened a briefing with reporters by saying he wanted to assert a "point of personal privilege" to laud the vice president.
"I took extreme pleasure in watching the debate last night because of the way that he demonstrated his passion and his wisdom and the joy that he brings to the job of serving the American people as vice president and of working with this president to bring about positive change for the middle class and for this country," Carney said just hours after the Biden-Romney debate. "I thought he presented a remarkably strong case for the policies that this president has put in place and the policies that he believes are the right ones to move the country forward."
Still, top Democrats say the Obama campaign realizes that in Tuesday's debate at Hofstra University, which will feature actual voters in a town hall format, the president has to be careful not to mimic Biden too closely or he risks coming across as too negative.
And with critics sometimes charging the President is aloof, his campaign staff is trying to downplay expectations for an "I feel your pain" moment a la Bill Clinton and is instead emphasizing their contention this is a choice election and Obama has a second chance on Tuesday to lay out the stakes in November.
"The president is looking forward to answering questions from the American people who have a shared stake in where this country goes over the next four years," said Psaki. "The question is not just which candidate connects with the questioner, but who has the better policies for the American people for the next four years and on that front the president has a great advantage."
It's no accident that Obama chose this battleground of Virginia for debate preparations again. In the run-up to the first debate, the Obama did his prep sessions in the hotly-contested state of Nevada, which enabled him to visit a campaign office there to thank his volunteers and fire up his base at a large rally in Las Vegas.
This time aides say the president is not planning to hold any similar campaign rallies here, though there is a possibility he may venture out for a brief stop or two to mingle with voters.
He will spend most of his time holed up at the popular Kingsmill Resort along the James River, which aides say he values for its ability to provide some quiet time. His prep sessions are taking place in the main building of the resort, while the president is staying in a house on the campus.
Those debate prep sessions consist of a combination of studying up on what Romney and Ryan have said in the debates so far and on the campaign trail, in addition to actual practice.
Despite the weak performance in Denver, campaign officials have suggested there has been no major shakeup to the sessions, with
Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass., once again playing Romney in the mock sessions, though there has been at least one minor change.
Ben Rhodes, a national security aide at the White House, has been added to these sessions because the second debate will feature both foreign and domestic policy.

The first step there is not to change it just yet. See it, recognize it, write it down. Unless it's dangerous or something, set about learning as much as you can about the job surrounding whatever it is. It's possible you'll either (a) discover that change has been attempted and failed for whatever reason, or (b) discover an even better, more efficient way to do it than you had originally thought. Listen to your employees to an extent, but not so much that you lose focus on your own observations. Know the job. Know yours and theirs. Know theirs as well as or better than they do. Know which employees know their jobs best, and rely on their input more than the others. Again, though, learn the job. Know it. You can be pleasantly surprised with new ideas, then, but you can't be fooled.

Your new to this location, so tread lightly. Get the feel of the place then ask those worker who are will to change to just try a new idea one at a time. Don't force a lot of changes all at once. Find the one worker everyone turns to for help & answers. If you win that persons loyalty they will help you make changed to help the workers. Change for change sake is not helpful, it need to make a positive change. Good Luck

You already have 2 excellent answers, so first off read them. Then make a list of things that you would like to change, and why. Talk to your staff and try to find out why these things are done the way they are -sometimes there are genuine reasons why a job has to be done a certain way. Then call a meeting with all of your staff. Tell them that you need their help, as they have worked there longer than you, so in the short term you are hoping they will help you out. Then tell them that you want to help them in return. You want to improve their work, by making it easier and quicker to perform certain tasks, thus creating a little slack, that will enable them to think more about what they are doing, rather than being run off their feet just doing it. So explain that if you can all work together things should improve for everyone. Ask them if they have any problems that you can all look at as a team to see if between you all you can resolve the problems and make things run smoother and more efficiently. Maybe you could give every member of staff a questionnaire to fill in. Ask questions like - What do they think of their jobs? What do they enjoy in their job? What don't they like about it? What do they think could be done better? What could be done easier? etc etc. Then when you have got their feedback you have a basis for introducing your improvements. Only now you can say that these improvements were prompted by their feedback in their questionnaires. They will not feel it is just you wanting to change things because you are new. Make sure that you think through the affect that each planned change will have on other steps in the process. Sometimes a change that is good for process A, may have a negative effect on process B, so make sure you have covered these possibilities. Before the changes are implemented though, I suggest you discuss them with the individuals that will affected, and see how they feel about them, rather than just telling them what the new work method involves. People hate having changes thrust upon them without any discussion. Explain what you have in mind and invite them to comment on the idea. Some people are just frightened of change. But if you can convince them of the benefits of the change then you will have won them over.
