According to U.S. officials the United States and Iran have agreed to meet and discuss Iran's nuclear program for the first time. This could be a last effort to diplomaticaly figure out the situation in Iran before a military strike becomes necessary. Iranian officials however, insist that they wait until after the presidential election so they know for sure who they will be in the discussions with. This could be good or bad for President Obama because he can use this as a positive thing in his campaign that he is close to a nuclear resolution with Iran, however it could go wrong and not be a positive thing after the talks. This could also help Mitt Romney or hurt him because no one knows how he will react. He has always said Obama is too weak when it comes to our relationship with Iran so it is unclear if he would be willing to talk with them at all. Also Romney is against Iran enriching uranium at all even for energy purposes so he may not be too lenient in the discussions.
