*-- Obama opens final re-election blitz --*
DELRAY BEACH, Fla. - U.S. President Barack Obama opened the final leg if his re-election campaign Tuesday, saying he hoped the final debate made differences with his opponent clear.

Obama held a rally with some 11,000 supporters at the Delray Tennis Center in Delray Beach, Fla., before heading for stops in Ohio where campaign spokeswoman Jen Psaki said he would hammer away at his vision for propping up the middle class.

Obama said Republican challenger Mitt Romney's approach to foreign policy "has been wrong and reckless. Last night [during the debate at Lynn University] he was all over the map." He then said it was another example of "Romnesia," what he has defined as Romney's penchant for changing his position.

"And we joke about 'Romnesia,' but you know what -- this is actually something important -- this is about trust," Obama said. "There's no more serious issue in a presidential campaign than trust. The person who leads this country, you've got to have some confidence that he or she means what he or she says that if they tell you they're going to do something or that this is what they believe, that they're going to actually try to do it."

Psaki told reporters aboard Air Force One the campaign opened "a full-scale, multi-platform, organization effort" Tuesday for the final blitz so "every voter knows what a second term of an Obama presidency would mean for the middle class." The effort includes direct mail advertisements and distribution at field offices.

White House press secretary Jay Carney said Obama was pleased with his Monday night debate performance.

"He felt that he was able to articulate his vision for America's role in the world; that he was able to forcefully explain the decisions he's made, and make the important point that when you are commander-in-chief you have to be clear and decisive, even when you're making decisions that aren't popular. And I think he felt good about his performance last night," Carney said.
