We're going to wrap up our live blog politics coverage for the day. Here's a summary of where things stand:

• In response to an uproar over secretly filmed comments he made at a Florida fundraiser, Mitt Romney said the country faces a choice between dependency and self-reliance and that a vote for his opponent is a vote for the former.

• High-profile Republicans including William Kristol, David Brooks, Scott Brown and Linda McMahon condemned and distanced themselves from Romney's comments in the video, while members of the hard-right including Donald Trump and Rush Limbaugh encouraged Romney to keep on fighting.

• Mother Jones magazine posted the surreptitiously recorded video online in its entirety, at Romney's behest. Our coverage of the video's contents is here.

• A new Gallup poll showed Obama's lead over Romney narrowing to one point, at 47-46, from a 7-point lead the president enjoyed after the Democratic national convention. An NBC poll showed the president's approval rating on foreign policy had fallen 5 points from last month. A Washington Post poll showed Obama leading Romney 8 points in Virginia.

• President Obama is scheduled to appear tonight on Late Night with David Letterman, his seventh appearance on the show.
