The Obama campaign is already targeting Rep. Paul Ryan's Medicare plan with an online video released two days after the Wisconsin congressman was picked to be Mitt Romney's running mate.
The video shows Florida senior citizens talking about how Rep. Ryan's proposed Medicare voucher plan could affect them, and how re-electing President Obama will protect their Medicare coverage.
The video coincides with a Romney campaign stop in Florida.
Paul Ryan's plan includes a voucher system to reshape Medicare that some analysts say would likely increase health care costs for seniors. But Ryan says the changes are necessary to preserve Medicare for future generations.
Ryan is campaigning at the Iowa State Fair on Monday.
