The race between President Obama and Mitt Romney is neck and neck with an intensity for spectators to view. Both candidates bash each other with speeches and comments of one or the other is out of touch with the everyday American. Numerous reports detail Mitt Romney to be more of a puppet chosen by superiors to pose as the next candidate for republican wealth. While Mr. Obama is popular with the image of that of a rock star has the full support of the Democratic influence despite harsh comments from the Romney camp. Ohio and Pennsylvania being very important states during the electoral race both Obama and Romney drop speeches on the state of Ohio at one of the most detrimental stages of the race. Major polls now show the two candidates running neck and neck, with a significant percentage of voters still undecided. Usually it is somewhat in sight which candidate is affecting the polls more. Truthfully I believe it is more on the basis of Romney being a rich man's, rich man and wealthy supporters not wanting to be taxed by President Obama and the Democratic side of the House.
But Romney has several factors working in his favor. He is strongly liked for his business skills. Compared to Obama's 43% a USA Today poll states 46 % of voters feel Romney is better suited to manage the government effectively.
Another survey of registered voters found that 61 percent believe Romney would get the job done with the economy, while just 52 percent feel the same about Obama. When in reality absolutely no candidate could fix many years of mishandled numbers in just one term of presidency. Trillions of dollars were pushed out for years with no real plans to replace those funds. No one wanted to react until the shit hit the fan and of course whom ever is at the helm will seem or at time are completely to blame. That just comes with the territory in politics and perhaps should not be taken personally or I think a president would be exiting the Oval Office a little quick than expected. Please don't get confused... this race is in a dead heat and all polls show that it will be neck and neck all the way through November.

Statistically between Florida, Ohio and Pennsylvania no candidate has ever won an election with out taking two of the three states. A number of indicators suggest this year has the potential to be different, and favor the President. For one, Americans say Obama is more “likable” than Romney, according to a recent USA Today, which showed that Obama holds a 60 percent to 31 percent edge on this characteristic.
Another strong point for Romney: Polls released in late May showed the 63% of voters believe the country is headed in the wrong direction, an ominous sign for the incumbent.
Romney leads Obama 47% to 41% in Florida, according to another survey, while Obama holds an 8-point lead in Pennsylvania. In Virginia, which is shaping up to be a hotly contested state this year, surveys by the Washington Post have Obama with a razor-thin majority of the votes = 51% — while a Report poll has Romney ahead by 1 percentage point in that state. Clearer differences may emerge as the campaigns proceed, but right now the polls indicate that the 2012 presidential election will not be won in a landslide.
The president "said, as you know, just a few days ago, that the private sector is doing fine," Romney said. "But the incredulity that came screaming back from the American people has caused him, I think, to rethink that. And I think you're going to see him change course when he speaks tomorrow."
Shooting back, the Obama campaign accused Romney of making a "dishonest claim" about the president's record and "failed to offer any new ideas of his own" on improving the economy. Romney would push "budget-busting tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans" and let "Wall Street write its own rules -- the same policies that crashed the economy and devastated the middle class in the first place. Mitt Romney pre-empted President Barack Obama's Cleveland remarks with a simple warning: Talk is cheap. MITT ROMNEY (quote)
"Now you may have heard that President Obama is on the other side of the state and he's going to be delivering a speech on the economy. He's doing that because he has not delivered a recovery for the economy," Romney said during a speech in Cincinnati. "But don't forget, he's been president for three and a half years. And talk is cheap. Action speaks very loud."
"The president said that if we let him borrow $787 billion for a stimulus he'd keep unemployment below 8% nationally. We've now gone 40 straight months with unemployment above 8%. But then he'll say: 'He would say the things he's been doing have been good helping create growth, putting people back to work.' Oh really? Go check on that." "Go talk to the people, talk to the people in business who do the hiring, talk to the employees that want to be hired and ask them, did the president's policies make things better or worse for getting jobs?" Exclaims Romney. "If you think things are going swimmingly, if you think the president's right when he said the private sector is doing fine, well then he's the guy to vote for," Romney said. "But when he said that, there was such an outpouring of response from the 23 million Americans out of work or underemployed that I think today he's not going to say it again."
