BOULDER, Colo. - If there was any doubt about the importance of battleground states just look at the president's agenda. Sunday was the eighth time President Obama has been to Colorado just this year. He is campaigning there in advance of the Democratic National Convention, starting Tuesday.
In Boulder, the president argued that Governor Romney failed to explain where he would take the country when he had the national spotlight at the Republican National Convention. President Obama told the crowd his convention speech will look forward. Republicans say that's only because he's trying to avoid talking about his past four years.
The president's visit to the University of Colorado was his sixth trip to a college campus in the past two weeks.
He told a crowd of 13,000 that he could win Colorado if they and their friends showed up at the polls.
"We have set up a Rocky Mountain rumble to see what school can register more voters, CU or Colorado State," Mr. Obama said.
The president won 72 percent of the vote in this college town four years ago. He'll need a similar margin this year if he wants to keep Colorado's 9 electoral votes.
Some students here say they are enthusiastic about the Obama campaign, but worry there is a sense of complacency among younger voters.
A recent poll showed Governor Romney leading by 5 points in this battleground state.
Romney was in Cincinnati, Ohio, Saturday, sticking with a major theme from his convention speech, saying Mr. Obama had let down working Americans...

If he has to work to get the youth vote, he is several orders of magnitude beyond screwed. Soon he will be speaking at black only venues because they will be fading too. They have been hurt by Obama’s policies more than any other group.
Y'can't get the columns rented in two months ... everything's taken or gone.
This pathetic regime doesn't know it's dead ...
The Zombie Apocolypse apparently is real ...
They walk among us.
Students will get extra credit for showing up to his speeches. That helps make it look like he is drawing a crowd. Besides, what else does Obama know?
Vote for Obama and you have a 50-50 chance of being able to live off of and with your parents for years after you graduate.

I guess his teleprompter was not working? A Rocky Mountian rumble? Sounds like a disaster to me.
The completely brainwashed are the only ones still buying communism.
Pray for America
Obama is handing out free glow in the dark posters the kids can put on their bedroom ceilings when the move back home.
He was in CO on the 28th of August also.... I keep track of his trips but it’s getting more difficult as they aren’t showing up on his schedule on wwww.whitehouse.gov
I have to wait until I see something online or on the news about where he is.....
I want to see some reimbursement from the DNC for all those flights. Guess I’ll be waiting a long time!!
not twice.. He’s going for the ones that were just out of Jr. High when he was elected.
Obama hopes college kids vote twice....
Once in their home town where they registered at age 18 via absentee ballot.
Once in their college town in person.
I take that back. That should put him over the top.
That remains to be seen, 'rumbling' Rockies is not where I would want to be. Strange language given recent history in Aurora, CO. Either his full time teleprompter programmer is on vacation or Obama is speaking his own language.
If you’re an idiot-Socialist-Communist-moron-fag-pantywaist, where do you go to find votes?
Where idiots-Socialists-Communists-morons-fags-pantywaists are nourished: colleges and universities.
I know of at least 3 senior citizens who are Democrats and voting for Romney this year. This may not sound like much, but how many others out there feel the same way?

Would love to see college kids getting prosecuted for their vote fraud.
Unless they all were planning on finding jobs when they graduated.
Neither am I x 7.
Thanks 2ndDivisionVet.
Do the students at these colleges know that there are no jobs waiting for them when they graduate? But thanks to Obama replacing the openly competitive student loan business with a government-run monopoly, these same students can be expecting to pay three times the current market price for their student loans.
I'm sure he'll blame that URL on Bush, too! ;-P
Colleges are probably the last bastion with enough brain washed/brain dead leftists to make him feel welcome and adored - he desperately needs to be "loved".
He’s had 4 years to do something about this. It’s election time and now he is thinking about this?
Cheers!
