From Hudson, New Hampshire -?
Mitt Romney arrived at Gilcrhist Metal Fabricating on Monday with rumblings of softer poll numbers in New Hampshire, but that didn't knock the GOP frontrunner off his focus on President Obama and the U.S. economy.
"He has not been able to succeed in helping the American people," Romney said.
"He has failed to get Americans back to work," Romney added in his now familiar stump speech.
One day before voters go to the polls, Romney urged those who had come out to see him to vote - and take a friend to vote as well - arguing the country is watching what New Hampshire is doing.
"Whether it be me or someone else - I'd rather it be me - but I sure want to make sure that you vote," said Romney.
Romney had created a bit of a buzz earlier in the day when answering a question about health insurance, as he told a group in Nashua that he likes to "fire" people.
At first, that lit a quick fire on the internet; but Romney moved to squelch those attacks as he held a quick news conference after his event in Hudson
"Sorry," Romney told reporters in a tone that reminded me of a father gently lecturing his kids.
"You know the context of what I was saying, which is we all like to choose our own insurance company, and if they don't do the job for us, being able to get rid of them," said Romney.
Romney would like to be able to get rid of the GOP field in coming weeks; a win in New Hampshire would certainly put him one step closer to achieving that.
But some polls have indicated that his support might be dropping, though no one is close to taking the lead at this point.
One historical note - no Republican candidate has ever won the Election Year Daily Double of both the Iowa Caucus and the New Hampshire Primary in the same year.
Mitt Romney will try to change that on Tuesday night.
One note about Romney's event here in Hudson - he was almost one hour late, which is very unlike Mitt Romney.
That delay made me miss Ron Paul's last event of the day, which took place at 2pm, so I was unable to see all five of the major GOP candidates on Monday.
