The Obama campaign isn't wasting any time attacking Mitt Romney's pick for Vice President. But, one day after the Paul Ryan introduction - huge energetic crowds are greeting the new Republican ticket. Thousands of people lined the streets in High Point, North Carolina and spilled out into overflow areas in Mooresville as Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan traveled through the battle ground state to try to define their campaign. Romney told supporters, "this is day two on our comeback tour to get America strong again... to refill the promise of America."
The Romney campaign is coming under fires for Ryan's house-backed budget plan that included an overhaul of Medicare. On 60 Minutes, Romney and Ryan gave their first interview together and said they are committed to preserving the program.
Paul Ryan said, "In order to make sure we can do that, you must reform it for those of us who are younger. And we think these reforms are good reforms have have bipartisan origins.
President Obama is spent his Sunday in Chicago - raising money for his re-election at five fundraisers. He called the Wisconsin congressman the ideological leader of Congress. Speaking at a rally, he said, "He's an articulate spokesman for Governor Romney's vision, but it is a vision I fundamentally disagree with."
The President says Romney's policies are what got the economy in trouble in the first place but says his team can still turn things around. He told supporters, "If You still believe in me and are willing to get out there and work over the next 86 days we will not only win this election but we will finish what we started."
The President hits the campaign trail Monday for a bus tour in Iowa. Ryan will also be there - battling for support in the key swing state.
Romney aides say the ticket will split up hitting different states so they can cover more ground on the campaign trail leading up to the Republican convention at the end of the month.
