Obama embraces ‘Obamacare,’ says it’s here to stay - BostonHerald.com: TOLEDO, Ohio — In his warm-up for the Democratic National Convention, President Barack Obama is tangling with a couple of rivals, only one named Mitt. The other is voter apathy, especially among the young.

Obama’s pre-convention tour of battleground states has been heavy on college crowds, where he’s implored supporters to register and vote by painting the choice in stark terms: It’s his education tax credits versus Mitt Romney’s tax breaks for the rich; his "Obamacare" versus "Romney doesn’t care," his "forward" versus "same old."

And when those crowds boo the references to Romney, Obama tells them to convert that negative energy into votes Election Day.

Obama addresses a United Auto Workers Labor Day rally in Toledo on Monday before getting his first look at the aftermath of Hurricane Isaac in a stricken parish outside New Orleans. He’s to meet emergency personnel who’ve been laboring since the storm hit last week to restore power and tend thousands of evacuees from flooded lands.
