President Barack Obama used the first official rally of his re-election bid to highlight the accomplishments made during his three and a half years in the White House, and to make a case for a second term in office.

"We are making progress and now we face a choice, Ohio," said the president, at a rally at the Schottenstein Center on the campus of The Ohio State University in Columbus. "This is a make or break moment for the middle class, and we can't turn back now."

In his 36-minute-long address, Obama tied presumptive GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney to Republicans in Congress, saying that if elected, Romney would rubber-stamp the congressional GOP agenda, telling the crowd that "we cannot give him that chance."

"That's the choice in this election, and that's why I'm running for a second term as president of the United States," added Obama.

1. Waht I love in these Obama rally pictures

are the faces in the crowd. Picture #4 especially, but the others as well. Th expression on the faces, the smile... and contrast this wth the typical faces at an R rally. Very striking.

2. I agree

It's the difference between happiness and excitement vs. mouth frothing anger and hatred.
