Barack Obama - If Mitt Romney and Obama face off for the White House it is unlikely that President Obama would win Utah, already an extremely Republican state. But that isn’t stopping his campaign from trying. Obama 2012 has set up shop in the Beehive state. According to national training director Sara El-Amine, the campaign will have a ground game in all 50 states, but “Utah will require some hard work and creativity to have the desired impact,” Deseret News reports.(Photo: REUTERS/Jason Reed)

Mitt Romney - Mitt Romney added a third win to his column after prevailing in Saturday’s Republican caucus in Nevada with 48 percent of support. Romney has spent much of the past few weeks attacking Newt Gingrich, but with Rick Santorum looking good in Minnesota, which holds its caucuses on Feb. 7, he’s turning his sights on the former Pennsylvania senator. The campaign sent out a press release Monday summarizing Santorum’s "false attacks on Massachusetts health care.”(Photo: Justin Sullivan/Getty Images)
