At a campaign event in Pennsylvania, President Obama said that this morning’s jobs report showing the economy added 80,000 new jobs last month was “a step in the right direction, but we can’t be satisfied.”

Mitt Romney on Friday responded to the June jobs report, saying the “kick in the gut has got to end.”
