TAMPA--Following a day of GOP convention speeches--hitting President Barack Obama--Obama campaign Senior Strategist David Axelrod said in a stastement, "If any American tuned in tonight hoping to hear if Mitt Romney has a plan to lift the middle class, improve education or build a better future, they would have to be disappointed. What they got instead was a relentless cavalcade of insults and ideology, anger in place of answers, from a party more bent on tearing down the President than lifting up our country. "
