The Democrats Convention 2012 gets underway

The Democrats Convention 2012 kicks of today in Charlotte, North Carolina. It will be interesting to see how Michelle Obama handles the situation on the opening day.  

The Democrats have a lot on their plate. The president has to convince the people that the economy is getting better and that new jobs are on the way. His healthcare reforms are not going down well with a lot of Americans.

Barack Obama finds himself in a close race with the Republican rival Mitt Romney. It is getting a lot closer than most people thought. Things are hotting up and with two months to go, it is anyone’s race. The race is simply too close to call right now.

These swings states are his target for the time being and it will take some convincing as a lot of people are disappointed with the way the economy has shown a lackluster improvement.

The next couple of days could be crucial. Barack Obama’s acceptance speech is an eagerly anticipated event and people are going to hang on to his every word. Even world leaders will be paying close attention.
