Rival parties in Britain's election campaign have hired former strategists for US President Barack Obama in an attempt to sway one of the most unpredictable elections in years ahead of polling day on May 7. Conservative Prime Minister David Cameron is battling to stay in power against the main opposition leader, Labour's Ed Miliband, with their parties neck and neck in polls. Miliband has hired David Axelrod, 60, the strategist behind Obama's "Yes We Can!" slogan, which helped sweep him to power in 2008. Cameron has Jim Messina, 46, who led Obama's 2012 re-election campaign, as well as 33-year-old Reggie Love, the president's former personal aide.
