AEHQ: Candidates Tackle Jobs Following Debate

Following Wednesday’s debate, candidates hit the campaign trail where jobs was the subject most of the minds of both President Obama and Mitt Romney.

FOX News Radio’s Rich Johnson and Jennifer Keiper report in this election update:

I’m Rich Johnson in Virginia’s Shenandoah Valley, where Mitt Romney said the Obama administration’s desire to raise taxes will kill tens of thousands of jobs.

(Romney) “We will not let that happen. We want to create jobs, not kill jobs in this country!”

Romney and running mate Paul Ryan enjoyed the cheers of an estimated 7,000 people here and picked up the formal endorsement of the National Rifle Association.

Here on the University of Wisconsin campus President Obama says he wants to export more products and outsource fewer jobs.

(Obama) “My opponent said we should let Detroit go bankrupt. We came together… Don’t boo – vote… We came together to reinvent a dying auto industry that’s now back on top of the world. We created half-a-million new manufacturing jobs.”

And he says companies that open new plants in the U.S. should be rewarded rather than giving tax breaks to those that ship jobs overseas.
