Obama's Tour

10/26/12 By Chris Moody

          Cleveland, Ohio was Obama's last stop on his tour through the swing states. His speech was the same as the other speeches he delivered in the other states, just a bit more tired. Towards the end of his speech though, he changes his tone. "Look, Ohio, I know we've been through tough times," Obama said. "Every day I think about everybody out there across the country who's still looking for a job...whose homes may be still under water or at risk of foreclosure. The folks out there who at the end of the month are sitting at the kitchen table trying to figure out, How am I going to make all these bills? Michelle and I understand it, because we know what it's like to have a tough time sometimes." Ohio has a 9% unemployment rate and is slowly recovering from it. He encouraged voters to vote early and even had banners that said in capitol letters "VOTE EARLY". He also talks about "Romnesia" and talks more of women's rights as Romney wants to make abortion illegal even if it involved rape. "I don't think any politician in Washington, most of whom are male, should be making health care decisions for women," Obama said in Tampa, warning that Romney would "turn back the clock 50 years for women."

          The author is only stating facts about what Obama said and what his spokes people say. He does not choose a side in the article he wrote. If people were to read this article, I believe it could change the voters mind completely. The reader would see that Obama can relate to regular citizens while Romney cannot and that Obama is fighting to keep women's rights while Romney is trying to take it away using "Religion" as his excuse.
