Mitt Romney is best known for his
credentials as a business executive. He served as Massachusetts governor
for one term and he has been running for president nearly nonstop since
2007, but his strength as a businessman is an advantage in an election
dominated by economic discussions. Mr. Romney is trying to persuade
voters that President Obama’s policies have not worked and that he
should be elected to complete the nation’s economic recovery.
The room for error for Mr. Romney is much narrower. He must win several
states that voted Democratic four years ago, particularly a combination
of Florida, North Carolina, Ohio and Virginia and at least one other
state. His campaign is also trying to catch up to the president’s team,
which has been steadily building an organization for more than a year.
He must energize Republicans, while appealing to independent voters,
including many of those who supported Mr. Obama last time.
