WITH 27 DAYS TO GO, AND JUST ONE DAY BEFORE THE V-P SHOWDOWN, THERE ARE MORE SIGNS OF A MITT ROMNEY SURGE.

POLITICS TODAY-PKG

Dueling rallies in Ohio overnight.

The President trying to hold onto his shrinking lead here-

In front of a crowd of 15-thousand. his message tailor made:

"And when you think about Ohio, when Governor Romney said that we should let

the auto industry go bankrupt, we said no we're not going to take

your advice. Don't boo, vote! Cheers. And we reinvented a dying auto

industry that supports 1 in 8 Ohio jobs."

The newest poll

shows the President's lead tightening to just 4 points here in Ohio.

Mitt Romney trying to flip the scales-- knowing no Republican has won the

White House without Ohio.

"I've been watching some of President Obama's rallies and they chant four

more years, four more years. And today there are 28 days before the electon

. I think the right chant ought to be for them, four more weeks, four more

weeks."

But overnight, the Romney campaign answering questions about something else.

A new interview in which Romney discusses a crucial social issue abortion

.

**IN AN INTERVIEW, ROMNEY TELLING** The Des Moines Register:

"There's no legislation with regards to abortion that I'm familiar with that

would become part of my agenda."

A decidedly different tone from what Romney said about Roe v. Wade during

the primaries:

"Romney: Do I believe Supreme Court should overturn Roe. v. Wade? Yes!

**OR this about Planned Parenthood **BACK IN MARCH**.

"Romney: Planned Parenthood, I'm going to get rid of that."

The Obama campaign overnight pouncing.

"He said he'd be delighted to sign a bill banning all abortions and called

Roe v. Wade 'one of the darkest moments in Supreme Court history."

The Romney campaign saying this new interview was NO shift.

WEATHER-STC

FIRST ALERT FORECAST-CLIP

FIRST ALERT FORECAST-WXWALL

THIS WEATHERCAST HAS BEEN PREPARED BY THE NBC2 WEATHER STAFF.

IT IS NOT A VERBATIM OF WHAT IS BEING SAID, BUT IS THE FORECAST FOR OUR AREA.

Dry, stable air is in the process of filtering into Southwest Florida, which will work to drastically lower our rain chances for the next several days.

Instead of tracking those afternoon showers and storms, we'll just be tracking sunshine and a few fair-weather clouds. By tonight and Thursday, we'll even get a break from the oppressively high humidity we've endured for the last several months.

Here's how our Monday breaks down. In a few areas , we'll start out with some patchy fog. Otherwise, we'll begin with a mostly clear sky and temperatures in the mid to low 70s. Sunshine will basically dominate our sky through the day with just some patchy clouds expected to float through during the afternoon. Daytime temperatures will peak in the upper 80s to near 90.

Our sky stays clear tonight as humidity levels start a modest descent. The lowering humidity combined with a clear sky and northerly wind will support low temperatures near 70 by early Thursday, and many locations may even cool to the upper 60s, especially inland.

The subtle drop in humidity will carry over into Thursday, making the air feel slightly more comfortable. Temperatures will still be rather warm, too, with daytime highs mainly in the upper 80s. A refreshing breeze will set up out of the east northeast from 5-15 mph, and we may even get gusts in the 20-25 mph range.

Thursday night will likely be the coolest as temperatures area wide dip into the upper 60. The urban corridor will be closer to upper 60s while the more rural settings cool to the middle 60s.

The beautiful weather also rolls along into Friday and Saturday. Both days will feature mainly sunny skies and dry conditions with highs in the upper 80s.

By Sunday, there should be enough moisture coming in with the easterly winds to produce a few hit-or-miss showers, but even then, most spots will stay dry.

LINSEED OIL IS SAFE FOR WOOD BECAUSE YOU SPREAD IT OUT. BUT LEFT ON WADDED

EVAPORATES

Some experts say spread linseed-oil-soaked rags flat on your driveway until

they are totally dry. To be even more cautious you can fill a metal can

with water, put the rags in, and then seal it up tightly."

THE MOST POPULAR ATTRACTION AT DADE CITY'S WILD THINGS WEIGHS IN AT EIGHT POUNDS AND LOVES TO MAKE HIS VOICE HEARD.

THIS IS TONY THE TIGER AND HE'S READY TO SWIM WITH YOU.

"If you come and encounter little Tony now when he's a baby, you can come back in a few years when he is full grown and tell people, 'I swam with that guy'."

"THE FWC SAYS TIGERS LIKE TONY HERE CAN HAVE FULL CONTACT WITH VISITORS UNTIL THEY REACH 25 POUNDS."

"It's about 30 minutes and what you get to do is come out and play with the tiger cub. You get to spend some time on the land playing with them. running around. Sometimes, he'll take his bottle so you get to feed him. And, you actually get to get in the water with him.

TONY'S NOT THE ONLY SWIMMER IN THIS BUSY POOL. THERE'S ALSO ALLIE THE ALLIGATOR- WHO HOSTS HER OWN POOL PARTIES.

"It's surprising, their feet are very soft."

MUCH LIKE THE GATOR POOL PARTIES HELD BY ALLIGATOR ATTRACTION -- GUESTS GET TO SWIM WITH ALLY WHILE HER MOUTH IS TAPED SHUT.

IN BOTH INSTANCES A HANDLER IS PRESENT.

"We make sure all of the things are in line, plus a keeper is always present within reach at all times. So, it's perfectly safe and perfectly legal."

THE F-W-C SAYS IT IS INVESTIGATING THE GATOR SWIM AT DADE CITY WILD THINGS -- JUST LIKE IT DID AT ALLIGATOR ATTRACTION.
