First, I would try to replace this section of code

nav a.selected, nav a:hover { color: #ffffff; 
     color: #32673f
}

with this

nav a.selected, nav a:hover {
     color: #32673f;
}

You've got two color declarations here, and they're probably overwriting each other.

Besides that, I would need to see the HTML you're working with. If this doesn't work, could you post the HTML?
