Election 2012: No Rest In Final Campaign Hours For Barack Obama, Mitt Romney (VIDEO)

The White House the prize, President Barack Obama and Mitt Romney raced through a final full day of campaigning on Monday through Ohio and other battleground states holding the keys to victory in a tight race. Both promised brighter days ahead for a nation still struggling with a sluggish economy and high joblessness. "I've come back to Iowa one more time to ask for your vote," Obama told 20,000 supporters at an outdoor rally in Des Moines, the last of his campaign. "This is where our movement for change began." A single tear ran down Obama's face as he spoke. Whether it was the product of emotion or the bitter cold was hard to tell. In a final rally of his own Monday night, Romney told supporters in New Hampshire – he won the state's first-in-the-nation primary – that he needs their votes again.
