Mitt Romney‘s campaign - which in recent weeks has come under criticism for having a schedule light on public events and heavy on closed door fundraisers - has announced that the candidate will start ramp up his campaign schedule in coming days.
Cue the Ohio bus tour.
On Thursday, Mr. Romney's campaign announced a three-day bus tour with Representative Paul D. Ryan, Mr. Romney's running mate, through the critical battleground state of Ohio.
Unlike some of Mr. Romney's pervious, highly orchestrated bus tours, however, the Ohio tour has a slightly cobbled-together feel. Mr. Ryan will kick-off the “Romney Plan For A Stronger Middle Class†bus tour Monday in Lima and continue onto Cincinn ati on Tuesday. From there, Mr. Romney will pick up the tour route, with stops in Dayton, Columbus, Cleveland and Toledo. It is unclear if the two men will ever appear together.
And fundraising is never far from the surface. Prior finance commitments, for instance, will keep Mr. Romney from spending all three days in Ohio.
