Today is Super Tuesday for Ohio, and Republican candidates Mitt Romney and Rick Santorum have been focusing their efforts on Ohio this week, which has a history of being a bellwether state. The two candidates spent yesterday crisscrossing the state making speeches in an effort to gain momentum, as they have been neck-and-neck in the polls.

Santorum delivered a speech at Dayton Christian School yesterday morning, discussing everything from taxes to energy and foreign policy. He played the rhetoric heavily, calling for people of Ohio to "...go out over the next 24 hours and do big things."

Romney, who spoke in Youngstown yesterday, said that the first thing he would do if elected is issue an executive order to stop Obama's Affordable Care Act. Also that day he spoke at a factory in Canton and focused his rhetoric on the economy.

Don't forget that Ohio Republicans can go out and vote today for their candidate of choice, and have a say in who is on the rRepublican ticket in the 2012 election.
