Christian Clegg is an assistant to the city manager in Stockton. His title was incorrect in the print and initial online versions of this story. The error has been corrected online.

STOCKTON - Mayor Anthony Silva's dual role at City Hall and as CEO of the Boys & Girls Clubs of Stockton might clash tonight in a discussion over who will run a city swimming pool this summer.

The Boys & Girls Club seeks to operate the Sousa Pool, one of the city's seven.

Silva says he has it on good authority that there exists no conflict of interest for him. The City Attorney's Office says it isn't convinced and recommends the City Council avoid a potentially sticky situation.

The City Council tonight will vote either to contract with the Boys & Girls Club to operate the pool at a cost to the city of $5,000, or have the city run the pool itself, at a cost of $25,000.

CHESAPEAKE, Va.—Mitt Romney slammed President Barack Obama for not offering more details about his second-term agenda in Tuesday night's debate, telling voters here on Wednesday that his opponent has focused on attacking GOP proposals instead of explaining his own policies.

"He can't even explain what he's done in the past four years. He's spent most of his time talking about how my plan won't work. Well, what about his plan?"

Romney said at a rally held on the ground of a local community college here.

"It's clear when it comes to his policies, his answers and his agenda, he's pretty much running on fumes."

Again and again, Romney slammed Obama for not presenting a clearer plan for what he would do if re-elected. Pointing out that next Monday's debate in Boca Raton, Fla., will be their last face-off before Election Day, Romney suggested Obama has only a few more days to present his second-term agenda to the country."
