Barack Obama and Mitt Romney in Ohio. Romney's in Cincinnati and Obama's in Cleveland
GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney and President Barack Obama both were in the battleground state of Ohio on Thursday. Both gave dueling economic speeches to Ohio voters. Mitt Romney ripped his opponent's record on jobs growth said the economy is stuck in neutral. President Obama stated that Romney's prescription for the economy would set the stage for another financial crisis and recession similar to 2008. Obama said Romney's policies would mirror that of former president George W. Bush. President Obama was speaking in Cleveland and the former Massachusetts governor was speaking in Cincinnati. It was the closest thing yet to a general election debate. Each candidate spoke of how the opponent would be disastrous for the country.
Romney said Obama was delivering the economic address because he hasn't delivered a recovery for the economy. Romney ripped Obama on the stimulus of January 2009, Obamacare, and the Dodd-Frank bill to name a few. Romney said that Obama's policies do nothing but stifle job growth and they are bad for business. Romney said Dodd-Frank hinders banks' ability to lend. He also criticized Obama's failed energy policy.
President Obama accused Romnery of pushing for less regulation and tax breaks for the wealthy which he described as a failed experiment during the Bush administration. He said it would push this country into a deeper recession and make the recovery slower.
