SHOTLIST: RENO, NEVADA, OCTOBER 24, 2012, SOURCE: US POOL **NO RESALE for non-editorial purposes** SOUNDBITE 1 Mitt Romney (man), Republican presidential candidate (English, 16 sec): "The president's been unable to find an agenda, and to communicate an agenda, and to defend an agenda, and I think that's one reason why we all know he's out of ideas and out of excuses, and in November you're going to put him out of office." SOUNDBITE 3 Mitt Romney (man), Republican presidential candidate (English, 20 sec): "You know you're not going to get entrepreneuers to start a business, or big companies to come to Nevada, or any other American state to build a big enterprise and hire people if they think we're on the road to Greece, and the kind of spending we're doing right now is exactly what Greece did years ago. We're on that road. I'll get us off that road. I'll put us on the road to a balanced budget." - Romney's entry onstage - Romney's exit, shaking hands -----------------------------------
