Obama delivered a half-hour speech in Oskaloosa, his first visit to the eastern Iowa city since he campaigned for the Democratic nomination he won four years ago. Obama’s staff, which distributed tickets for the event, said 852 people attended.

Obama acknowledged he still has considerable work to do, including on the budget and economy, areas where the Republicans hope to win major support during the campaign. Romney’s biggest move in that regard has been last weekend’s announcement of Ryan as his running mate. The Wisconsin congressman has been a primary draftsman of Republican budget plans on Capitol Hill and leads the House Budget Committee.
