REPUBLICAN RUNNING MATES GO SOLO TO FLORIDA AND IOWA WHILE THE PRESIDENT ALSO CAMPAIGNS IN IOWA TODAY............

After shaking hands after their last rally together yesterday in Wisconsin, Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan bid each other farewell until the Republican National Convention two weeks from now and will be campaigning on their own, as Romney and Ryan continue the roll-out swing States  bus tour they have embarked on.  Governor Romney is in St. Augustine and Miami, Florida today for campaign appearances with the Sunshine State's junior U.S. Senator Marco Rubio; while Representative Ryan is going to Iowa State Fair, in Des Moines.  It will also be the first same day, same state, campaigning in this phase of the presidential election season, as President Obama will also be starting his already scheduled three day bus tour of seven towns and cities in Iowa beginning in Council Bluffs.  The President and Congressman Ryan will be appearing just 128.5 miles apart.  The Democratic incumbent is expected to speak about the Ryan Budget Plan and how it w partially privatize and / or voucherize Medicare as we know it, for Americans; while the presumptive Republican running mate will likely attempt to counter what the GOP commonly now refer to as, "Mediscare", on the part of the Democrats, as did retiring Texas Senator Kay Bailey Hutchinson, over the weekend and  as Representative Ryan shares the vision and plan(s) he and Governor Romney have to stabilize and assure the long term future of Medicare.  I look forward to following today's campaign events and blogging about them later in the day, with 85 days to go to Election 2012............
