FILE - In this Aug. 30, 2012 file photo, Republican presidential candidate, former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney speaks at the Republican National Convention in Tampa, Fla. While Romney's campaign rhetoric is emphasizing the current 8.3 percent unemployment rate, compared with 7.8 percent when Obama took office, President Obama's campaign naturally prefers to stress the more than 4 million jobs the economy has added in the past 2½ years. However, neither figure fully illustrates the state of the job market. (AP Photo/Jae C. Hong, File)
