ADVANCE FOR USE SUNDAY, JULY 22, 2012 AND THEREAFTER - FILE - In this Friday, June 29, 2012 file photo, President Barack Obama visits volunteers and evacuees at a YMCA facility serving as an evacuation center in Colorado Springs, Colo. Colorado, a state split by the Continental Divide, is also emblematic of the national divide. It is a battleground state where Obama and Mitt Romney are saturating the airwaves, parachuting in and dispatching surrogates to snag nine all-important electoral votes. The debate here over the government’s role in economy mirrors the polarized attitudes across the country. (AP Photo/Carolyn Kaster)
