COLUMBUS, Ohio â" Every week after Labor Day is touted as a critical week in presidential politics. The coming week may actually live up to that characterization.
During the next eight days, President Obama and Mitt Romney will meet for their final two debates â" Tuesday night at Hofstra University on Long Island and the following Monday in Florida. At that point, it should be clear whether the momentum Romney picked up from the first debate in Denver has stalled or whether he continues to gain ground against the president. In the meantime, the front-page headline in Saturdayâs Columbus Dispatch should serve as a warning to Obamaâs headquarters in Chicago. It read, âRomney on the rise in Ohio.â
Obama advisers were saying earlier in the past week that they believed the post-Denver Romney surge had stopped. But virtually every recent poll since Denver, here in Ohio and in other battleground states, has shown movement toward the Republican challenger. Obama may still lead in enough states to win reelection, but the margins are no longer comfortable.
On Friday night, a huge crowd filled the town square in nearby Lancaster to greet Romney and his running mate, Paul Ryan, for a joint appearance after Thursdayâs vice-presidential debate. Sen. Rob Portman, who is rapidly emerging as the Romney campaignâs most valuable player for his multiple roles as Ohio point man and Obama stand-in for debate prep, joined them on stage.
Romney spoke of seeing a âgrowing crescendo of enthusiasmâ around the country. All candidates say that in the final weeks of a campaign, but there is more than a little truth to it in this case. Republicans are energized in ways they werenât before, still driven more by their anti-Obama feelings but increasingly happy with their nominee.
The vice-presidential debate did not change the race in any significant way. In fact, it ended up as a booster for both sides. Vice President Bidenâs aggressiveness cheered Democrats who were morose after Obamaâs lethargic showing in Denver. They believed Biden dominated and won. Republicans, who saw Biden as overbearing and condescending, came away convinced that Ryan proved himself more than ready to be vice president. To them, a draw was a victory.
The pressure is squarely on the president Tuesday night, given his performance in Denver. But Romney, too, needs a strong evening to cement the first. He cannot afford any backsliding. His advisers know that if, as expected, the president does a better job Tuesday, stories will inevitable be written about his bounce-back. No one expects a second mismatch.
Biden laid out the angles of attack that the president will pursue on Tuesday, including confronting Romney about his â47 percentâ comment, the percentage of income he pays in taxes, the holes in his tax plan and the GOP ticketâs position on abortion â" none of which Obama hit hard in Denver. The presidentâs challenge will be to deliver those attacks in a town hall debate that features questions from an audience, a format that generally rewards empathy over aggressiveness.

Answer by rtfm
It means the cash value is zero. You can't cash it in for money.
Answer by Jena
I am not sure what u mean by $ 0.0 . My guess, I think you are talking about a new whole life insurance account. Because in Whole Life insurance, you accumulate the money you have paid over time and you can borrow against it if you decide to make a loan.

Answer by Chris C
The Cash Value is the side account that you can borrow from, use as colateral, or get when you cancel the policy. Having $ 0.00 means there is no money accumulated in the Cash Value (some policies don't accumulate cash value until the 5 year, or 10 year mark) or that the cash value has been reduced to $ 0.00 (sometimes CV are based on the markets).
Answer by mbrcatz
It means, you haven't held the policy long enough to get a partial refund of what you paid in, if you decide to cancel it.

The Road to WWII is an innovative 16-part series that examines this crucial time as it progressed from the Armistice in 1918 to the attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941. You will see the people who made history, hear their voices, and revisit the sites of events where consequence occurred. From the election of Roosevelt, to the rise of Hitler in Germany, it's ...
