Dead heat. Theyve been crisscrossing the country in a mad scramble to make a difference to get out the vote and sway the undecided. The Obama Campaign is also calling in some of the heavy artillery. That would be the former president , bill clinton of the here is cnns white house correspondent. Reporter for president obama there is no more powerful surrogate than president clinton. Something he acknowledged in an interview released thursday. The last time we had healthy broadbased groelth was when he was president and people remember that. So he can say things that people immediately grab on to. Thats why clinton stars in campaign ads. President obama has a plan to rebuild america from the ground up. He headlines fundraisers and rallies. This one last week with bruce spring teen. They will be visiting florida, ohio and virginia together. He has particular appeal in the Africanamerican Community and i would guess among suburban women. The kind of folks that are torn. I think bill clinton would be a significant asset for the president. In may clinton undercut the Obama Campaigns main argument that mitt romneys business experience does not qualify him to lead the country. A man whos been governor and had a sterling Business Career crosses the qualification threshold. Reporter and back in 2007 when hilary and barack obama went head to head. I mean, whens the last time we elected a president based on one year of service in the senate before he started running. Reporter in early twoit, obama won iowa. Im here and hes not. I cant tell who im running against sometimes. Fast forward four years, clinton gave one of the most rousing speeches in support of obama at the convention. I want to nominate a man whos cool on the out siside, b who burns for america on the inside. Reporter afterward, obama joked about giving the former president a role in his cabinet. Somebody tweeted somebody needs to make him secretary of explaining things. Although, they didnt use the word things. Mitt romney is trying to keep voters focused on the economy telling them he could do better than president obama. Jim acosta is traveling with the Romney Campaign. Weve been traveling by bus over the last few days, ohio and iowa, one thing weve heard, hes been debuting this new theme, he is the agent, he is the candidate of big change and the president is just more of what he calls the status quo. One thing we can also report is the Romney Campaign is right now sort of riding a wave of momentum, some recent polls, not just nationally but across several swing states have shown romney gaining some traction and getting very close to overtaking the president in several key swing states and both nationally. Now, the Romney Campaign did put out a memo earlier in the week throwing cold water on one ohio state poll they took issue with saying it wasnt properly calibrated but they are also at the same time touting a New Washington post poll showing mitt romney leading the president nationally and doing very well among independents. At the same time we should p point out that along this tour he has hit a bit of a roadblock. One of his top surrogates, john sununu made some comments when he suggested that colin powell was endorsing the president because of his race. Sununu put out a statement saying he believes powell endorsed the president because of his policies. Its not just the tough talk on the campaign trail that were seeing that is causing things to get a little rocky out here. There is also the prospect of a major storm heading to the east coast. What forecasters have dubbed frankenstorm. It has already caused the Romney Campaign to reschedule on sunday. No word on when it will be rescheduled. Thanks very much. Cnns new poll shows a very tight race in the mustwin state of ohio. President obama is at 50 and mitt romney is at 46 . Im joined now by Gloria Borger and ryan lizza. Thanks, guys. Whos got the edge right now and were getting closer and closer. Its hard to say. Our head is exploding with all of these polls. But if you look at our lets take the state of ohio, which is of course so key to both campaigns. Its hard to see how romney would win the presidency without winning ohio, although they now say they could. Although if you look at the internals you see what youve been seeing all along. President obama is up with women about 12 points, mitt romney up with men by 8 points. Romney has made some in roads in suburban areas, but in our poll, the president is up with independent voters by about 5 points. What romney needs to keep doing, to get the momentum or to continue a momentum that he had after the first debate is to get those voters out in the suburban areas, married women in particular, that could make the difference for him in the state of ohio, which is so key. But as for overall momentum, were getting so many polls in every day, you talk to both campaigns and they say their tracking is the best and their tracking shows them on the road to victory. Ryan, where do you see the edge right now in that contest. Speaking about the ohio poll quickly, wolf. We now have 35 polls in a row and romney has only led in three out of five. So its one of the few battleground states where since his breakout first debate performance where he didnt see much momentum, unlike places like north carolina, colorado and virginia where romneys numbers really moved, obamas small but consistent lead has been incredibly stubborn in ohio. You know, again, this weekend were seeing this weird divergence. The National Polls show it tied, maybe a slight, slight edge for romney in the average of polls. But if you do the statebystate breakdown, its a very difficult path for romney to win that Electoral College without ohio, wisconsin, iowa, that midwest fortress that obama seems to have. When obama made the decision on the bailout that was unpopular and it now may be that that actually saves him in ohio. I remember doing reporting on that, and aus ten goolsby gave the pure Economic Advisory said dont do this. And they said mr. President we campaigned in these states, these people are getting killed weve got to do this. One of the most important decisions of his presidency. If he wints ohio, its going to be because he bailed out the Auto Industry. Yeah. There are about 800,000 we estimate, gloria, undecided voters in these few remaining Battle Ground states. Theyre all working trying to convince them. What is going to convince them. Its really hard to say. When you talk to republicans they tell you that late in the game, where we are, undecided voters will break towards the challenger. Thats the karl rove theory. The democrats say not necessarily. Maybe some disaffected democrats, but they will come back to the president in the end. So its very hard is to say whats going to convince them, whats going to make them decide. And also, there is a possibility, wolf, that these undecided voters, some of them may just decide to stay home. If they dont particularly like either of the candidates, they may decide to sit out the election. I want to play a couple of clips, ryan, because the comments in indiana by the Republican Senatorial candidate, Richard Mourdock generated a lot of reaction, national fallout. Listen to these exchanges. I just i struggled with it myself for a long time but i came to realize that life is a gift from god and i think even when life begins in that horrible situation of rape, that it is something that god intended to happen. We saw again this week, you dont want a bunch of politicians in washington, most of whom are male, making Health Care Decisions for women. Women can make those decisions themselves. Ryan, usually the president ial contest has ramifications down ballot. But in this particular case, down ballot in a senate race could have ramifications on the national contest. And add to that akins comment in missouri that may have blown the republicans chance of winning that Important Senate seat in missouri. And i think these issues break through to the president ial level when they have a clear resonance with the policies of the guys on the top of the ticket. And thats why the obama team has really hammered romney on this. But at the same time voters understand the difference between the Senate Candidates views and a president ial candidates views and romney and mourdock, in the case of abortion rights, in the exception, in the case of rape, romneys position is different than mourdock. And i think the Romney Campaign has been pretty clear about making that case. Ryan lizza, thanks so much. By the way he has an excellent article in the new edition the new yorker. I also recommend something that gloria is working on this weekend. Youve got two programs that are going to be airing.

The white house says thats the 13th straight quarter of positive growth and it shows the economy is moving in the right direction. The Romney Campaign calls the modest increase, quote, discouraging. Several factors are weighing in on the economy with the election around the corner, including the enormous federal debt. Lisa sylvester has been taking a look at whats going on. You know, something that we are hearing from ceos across the country is that the current u. S. Debt level is not sustainable anymore. Its been growing steadily from 5. 6 trillion in 2000 to 16 trillion in 2012. Business leaders are saying its time for democrats and republicans to compromise. Reporter bringing the bell of the New York Stock Exchange while sounding the alarm over the nations growing debt. More than 80 of the countrys largest ceos are urging law makers to reach a bipartisan agreement to bring down the nations debt level. Theyre pushing the controversialal methods raising tax revenue. There needs to be compromise and compromise not being a dirty word, but rather being synonymous with governing. Yes, i recognize my taxes are going up. I havent developed a table that says ill be willing to pay this much more if youre willing to cut this much more. Who knows where thats going to go. But i would say most companies, most people expect that theyre probably going to have to pay more. An increasing number of ceos are going on record that theyre willing to pay more in taxes to avert the socalled fiscal cliff as part of a comprehensive plan. If Congress Fails to act by january, it will trigger 600 billion of cuts. Businesses not certain of what lies ahead have been reluctant to increase pay rolls. We stop hiring externally. As people leave their positions, we dont fill those jobs. As you look at exapt expenditures, we start to slow down our spending. And you see most companies doing that now because when you run into an uncertain time, you question everything. Reporter and colgate is cutting 2300 workers. Ford is scaling back its european operations and laying off 4300 people. H. P. Is cutting 27,000 employees. Former senator al simpson and former chief of staff bowles offered a debt reduction. But the campaign to fix the debt now sees the Simpson Bowles as a possible blueprint to fix the crisis. The political will not so much yet. So we will get behind any plan that both parties, house Senate President can Work Together on and move forward hopefully in a timely manner. And we received a statement from snar simpson who said he and bowles are pleased there is a growing recognition among businesses and the public that something has to be done about the problem and he added that fixing the debt will have americans sacrificing for the good of the country. A weapons factory is bombed in sudan. Why it could be the latest example of israels long reach in a shadow war with iran. Stay with us. Youre in the situation room.

Snool a thousand miles for many front lines between israel and hamas mysterious explosions level an arms factory in sudan. Did israel destroy weapons long before they could reach gzas . There are kagss the israelis may have done that, but if they did, this has a we hadder reach. Analysts say this is part of a wider covert war that also involves iran. Reporter a series of big explosions overnight in the sudanese capital. What was this facility . An explosion occurred in one of the a. M. Nugs depots in the military. Reporter a weapon making factory. Witnesses tell cnn they saw planes above the facility at the time of the incident. One said he saw a plane leading with bright bliets and a secretary plain fired a rocket. The information minister says we think israel did the bombing. Cnn cannot independently verify the claim. Theres a chance the sudanese are not telling the truth. The israelis arent talking. Translator i have nothing to say about that. How do you interpret that rork . The israelis are not denying they were involved in this, so i take that as a kind of a wink, semiacknowledgement. Middle east security expert says if they did this, it would be at latest chapter of a war in the shadows between the israel and the u. S. On one side and iran and its allies on the other. Reporter analysts believe that iran may have been assist tg in weapons at that factory or smuggling weapons through sudan where they wind up in the hands of the enemy. Wikileakckileaks one cable s the weapons flow, the egyptians know that the arms pipeline runs from iran to sudan to egypt. It seems pretty clear hamas is continuing to receive arms. Not just hamas, these other groups that are involved in shooting rockets at israel. The iranians are trying to get arms from libya to gaza, from sudan to gaza. An official at irans mission, we tried repeatedly but could not get sudanese officials to respond to the claims that their country is working with iran to smuggle weapons to hamas. Thank you.

So switch to regions. And lets get going. Together. Cnn is putting enormous resources into covering the final tossup states that will decide this president ial election. We have reports from some of those Battle Ground states right now. First lets go to colorado where a new poll shows president obama and mitt romney are in a dead heat with 48 each. Lets go to miguel marquez. Hes been watching whats going on. What are you seeing and hearing . Reporter im hearing its very much the same as its always been here in colorado. People really turn between these two candidates. Were in suburban denver right now to figure out what makes these voters tick. This is Jefferson County, its one of the most competitive counties in this state. Both campaigns are working this county very hard. Its because as little as 20 or 30,000 votes across the entire state of colorado could paint this state red or blue. Thats as little as 1 of the overall votes statewide. So this is always the scariest bit of this. The first step is always the hardest. Spencer has run apex adventure trips for two years. So this is the office. True. Not a bad office. I like it. Business has grown, starting with four guides, he now has 20. This year, the companys biggest. 3,000 trips. Everything from pa pelg to back country skiing. The business expanded by keeping prices low and taking advantage of people staying close to home. What do you hope for the next four years . More people we can raise the bar for equal pay. The more that we can feel inclusion in this state. While some have weathered the recession well, colorado continues to struggle. The Unemployment Rate across the state about 8 . Here in Jefferson County its about 7. 3. Just a little better. This is the new restaurant. The nunez family, all ten of them, pitching in on a new venture. The draw authentic cuisine. How many recipes are in your head. I dont know. I could never count them. Now 74, shes known as grandma. What do you hope to see in the next few years . Well, i think one of the most important things is the economy to go up a little. Now the restaurant is run out of a strip mall. Soon, a new building, a liquor license, as many as 15 new employees. But this family is still agonizing over which candidate is best for the future. What makes this area so competitive . As you consider the numbers in terms of how the hispanic population is growing not only here but across the country, we have an important voice. Latinos, Business Owners and newer residents ready to deliver colorados crucial nine electoral votes, they could decide who takes the white house. Reporter the president will be back in colorado next week. This time in conservative territory in colorado springs. Both campaigns working incredibly hard. Like everywhere else in the country, it does seem that it will come down to organization and that ground game and who can get the vote out. Colorado clearly critically important. Now to another increasingly important president ial battleground. Were talking about the commonwealth of virginia. John king spent some time there talking to people and poll sters. If you look at the map miguel is in colorado thats one of the red states the president turned blue. If you lo at the map you see all this red. How did obama win last time . He woven it from all of them right here in fast growing northern virginia. Reporter urgency in a place once reliably red. This is the Republican Party in virginia. Mitt romneys path to the white house runs through virginia and to win it he must run strong within an hours drive of washington. Its all about northern virginia. There have been so many people from the northeast, from decratic areas, that they have turned a solid red state into a purple state. Reporter recent polls show a dead heat. If you look at the dozen polls in virginia taken before the first president ial debate on october 3rd, obama was ahead in all 12. If you look at the eight polls taken after the first president ial debate, romney was ahead in 6 out of the 8. And its now a deadeven tie. Reporter to prove its 2008 win was no fluke. It needs to run up the vote if it delivers it can ruin the night before the polls close in the midwest. Democratic congressman knows romneys more moderate tone of late is aimed at the suburbs. I think theres a trust factor with that. My constituents remember the republican primaries. Reporter the lunchtime visit to harold and cathys. She says she will vote republican for president as she did last time. From the getgo, mr. Obama promised so many things that i didnt believe he could do it. And he has proven that he couldnt do it. Reporter Robert Stevens is an independent and a obama 2008 supporter. It was Something Different for the country, something that hadnt happened before, with a black president. So i got caught up in that a little bit. But i think hes a disappointment. You dont like what you got but youre not sold on the alternative . Absolutely not. At this point i dont know who im going to vote for. Reporter tense final days. In a place long known for historic battle fields. So close like almost all the battleground what happens in the end what happens on the ground. Both parties say theyve got a much better ground operation than 2008. The republicans say theyve knocked on more than a million doors and they say their early voting numbers are improved. The democrats say no way. They will win virginia again because of this 60 plus offices statewide, latino strags up 19 . And under 60 under the age of 30. The democrats hope will put them over the top. Romney needs it. The president would like to keep it. Were hearing so many of these reports there could be recounts like in 2000. One of candidates could win the popular vote, lose the Electoral College vote. There are intriguing possibilities out there. You mention 2000. This has happened four times in our history. Of course the most recent time was 12 years ago where al gore actually won in the popular vote. George w. Bush became the president of the United States because of 537 votes in florida. Again people think the map this year will be more like this. Romney will do better in a lot of these states. Some people think its possible romney ekes out a popular win. Its so close it could go the other way too. The president could win the popular vote. Is it likely to happen . Both campaigns say probably not. Because tgs so close its possible. Weve got a lot of lawyers standing by in case of a recount, other morning after question. A lot of lawyers are standing by as well. You were in ohio, you spent some quality time in ohio. You saw the poll, likely voters in ohio, 50 for obama, 46 for mitt romney. This is a critically important state we like to say and its true, no republican has won the white house without taking ohio. No republican has ever won without it. Thats a statistical tie. Even though thats been the margin of error for months, the president has been ahead in ohio. Heres what were going to watch, over here. The president did well on this area four years ago. The Romney Campaign thinks the attacks on the coal industry will help him here. This is one state when you look at the male, white vote. If you look in wisconsin, michigan and ohio, this is where the auto bailout plays out. You see the president standing among white males a little bit higher in those states with a piece of the Auto Industry than other places. And when you look at the electoral map. It is almost impossible for romney to win without that. So hes in play there right now, but slight edge to the president. If the president wins ohio, it will be because of the Auto Industry. Thats the number you would look at and you would have to say without a doubt, you even see it in iowa, his working class white men in this area, the president s numbers are a little higher. John, thanks so much. John king doing some excellent reporting for us. A second term just a second term plan just released two weeks before the election. So why did the Obama Campaign wait so long . Ill ask the Obama Campaign Senior Adviser, David Axelrod. . Ones ive made. Ones weve all made. About marriage. Children. Money. About tomorrow. Heres to good decisions. Who matters most to you says the most about you. Massmutual is owned by our policyholders so they matter most to us. Massmutual. Well help you get there. To meet the needs of my growing business. But how am i going to fund it . And i have to find a way to manage my cash flow better. [ female announcer ] our wells fargo bankers are here to listen, offer guidance and provide you with options tailored to your business. Weve loaned more money to Small Businesses than any other bank for ten years running. So come talk to us to see how we can help. Wells fargo. Together well go far. Heading into the final week before the election, the Romney Campaign is accusing the president of being on the defensive and resorting to attacks and insults. And David Axelrod is joining us now from chicago. Hes the Senior Adviser to president obama and his reelection campaign. Thanks for coming in. A headline, obama scharpens criticism, romney expresses optimism. Ill play you a clip of what romneys been saying. He is now resorted to talking about saving characters on sesame street and word games and of course he continues to launch these misdirected attacks at me and he knows theyre not accurate and theyre not making much progress for him so his campaign gets smaller and smaller focused on smaller and smaller thing. Theyre saying that the president is diminishing the office of the presidency which is pretty strong words. Well, those are strong words. They dont mean a whole heck of a lot because they dont reflect whats going on out there. I havent seen governor romney on the trail with us, and he reallily doesnt know perhaps what the president is saying and doing or perhaps he does and it concerns him. The president is making a strong case for what we need to do to rebuild the middle class in this country and the kind of prescription for a genuinely Strong Economy and governor romney, he says i represent change. He represents an echo of a failed past. Hes offering the same prescriptions that got us into this mess in the first place. Big tax cuts for the well think, rolling back rules on wall street and he wants to talk about anything but that. And i understand that because thats a losing formula and now the American People have concluded that so in the 11th hour of the campaign hes out there prat ling on about things that arent central to peoples concerns. He is als saying that the new brochure that you guys released, the new economic pay rottism, its about a 30page booklet outlining what the president would hope to achieve. What took so long . Why wait until two weeks before the election to release a booklet like this . Because were in the last two weeks of the election and there are people out there who are making their final decisions. Not a lot. 5 to 10 making final decisions in this race and we wanted them as they made those final decisions to take a very hard look at where we would take the country and where mitt romney would take the country. And its valuable for them to have this in their hands to make that contrast. All the ideas that are in that are the ones that the president has been campaigning on in this campaign. Its the ideas that hes been working toward as president. And so, you know, its not that the ideas are new. Theyve been posted on our website for quite a long time. But we wanted people who are going to vote and were making their lastminute decisions to physically have it in their hand so they could focus on it as they make their final choice. The Romney Campaign has what they call a fivepoint plan but they have nothing underneath it, no plan to revietallize our education system, no plan other than to give the Oil Companies everything theyre asked for including continued subsidies but nothing for new energy. And then of course the biggest whopper is theyre going to take care of our deficits when they propose 7 trillion in new spending between tax cuts for the well think and the Pentagon Spending for which they have no plan to pay. So saying you have a plan for the future doesnt mean you do. What he has is the onepoint plan the president has been talking about, which is the same plan that got us into this mess in the first place. The main argument theyre making, he did it in his opening remarks in the last debate and the closing remarks, is that more people are unemployed, more people are on foot stamps, more people are in poverty right now than they were four years ago, why reelect a president who has a dismal record they say like this. The reason theyre behind in this race, wolf, is because thats been their mantra from the beginning. Everybody in this country knows where we were when this president took office and understands that were in a better place now. We have more work to do. But the last thing we need to do is go back to the tax cuts for the well think, deregulating wall street, taking care of folks at the top. Abandoning the middle class. That is essentially the strategy that got us into the mess that we were in the day the president walked in the door. So theyre not gaining much traction with that argument. What people are looking for is a vision for how we rebuild this economy, continue this recovery, and strengthen the middle class. And the president has offered specific ideas to do that that are real and credible and achievable. And thats something governor romney has not done. David axelrod from the Obama Campaign. Thanks for joining us. All right wolf. Good to be with you. Its among the tightest and most contentious contest in the country and it has national implications. Well get the latest on the Wisconsin Senate race. Wisconsin senate race. Stand by. Crest. Life opens up when you do. Lets head to the midwest right now and take a closer look at the lay of the political land in wisconsin, another key battleground state. It has ten electoral votes. It went for president obama in 2008. The latest polling shows the president with a sixpoint lead over romney in wisconsin. The president will be heading to wisconsin this week. It certainly remains a tossup on the cnn electoral map. Theres also a very heated u. S. Senate race in wisconsin underway right now. Heres cnns ted rowlands. Reporter on the right, Tommy Thompson, on the left, Tammy Baldwin, now 70, he served four terms as wisconsin governor and was george w. Bushs secretary of health and human services. Shes 50, openly gay and a 14year veteran of the house of representatives. Up for grabs is the senate seat left open by retiring democrat herb cole which republicans desperately want to help them win a majority. Im Tommy Thompson. Reporter both sides are pooring in cash, a state record 40 million has been spent so far on this election. Almost threefourths coming from groups that arent directly associated with the candidates but are very interested in the outcome. You cant turn on your tv right now without running into ads for tammy and tommy. Reporter daniel bice has been covering wisconsin politics for more than 20 years. This race he says is all about attacking the opponent. Shes trying to define thompson as someone who was a good governor but no longer supports the interests of wisconsin. Tommy thompson, hes not for you anymore. Hes trying to define her not as the nice Tammy Baldwin that you see on tv but as an extreme liberal who votes in a way people in wisconsin would not support. Too extreme for wisconsin. Reporter there have been two debates and the pundits seem to agree each candidate has a win. Both have been shown to be ahead at times. Right now were at a tied race. Its neck and neck. Reporter the marquette numbers show wisconsin is extremely polarized, possibly due in part to the recent bitter gubernatorial recall election. The president ial race is also close here. Many believe it will be very difficult for Tommy Thompson to win if mitt romney doesnt. You dont have as many ticket splitters as i think Thompson Campaign thought you might have had. Reporter what you do have is a small percentage of undecideds whose votes will likely determine the winners and both president ial and senate races. Ted rowlands reporting for us from wisconsin.
