I agree with you too....not buying it.
It's a convention bounce at best and will soon disappear in the wind like a fart.
My mother says the Romney ads are running in Ohio and the State just sent out the registration request cards for absentee ballots on Saturday. My Friends are worried about potential voter fraud with the absentee ballots there because her son already voted absentee -- he's in college already but in the mail our friends received another request form for an absenteee ballot for their son even though he's voted already.
I'm glad I'm not living in Ohio anymore so I don't have to hear all the ads, however, Ohio could use our three Romney votes because Georgia is already on the right side of this election.
Just curious ...that is, if you want to share....What's the ground game look like in Virginia?
The whole absentee/early voting thing has always been a worry for me, too.
The TV ads here are running about 50/50. I live in rural central VA, and I haven’t seen any Obama yard signs at all; they’re all Romney-Ryan. No, that’s wrong....I’ve seen one place with an Obama sign, and it belongs to an elderly widow up the road who runs a little diner-type restaurant (crazy). But the other day I was driving through an inner-city low income neighborhood, and I was shocked to see a little house with a yard full of Romney signs.
I’ve seen three or four Obama ‘12 bumperstickers in the city, but a couple were “Another Mama for Obama”. I assume those were Obama’s black base.
