I'm starting to think the Romney campaign has been pulling an electoral shell game on Obama for the last few months. Romney made it look publicly like he was following the conventional wisdom and betting everything on Ohio. This caused Obama to focus almost exclusively on Ohio, but all the while Romney was quietly shifting the “ball” to states like Pennsylvania, Wisconisn and Michigan. All of a sudden Obama was woken up this final weekend and found “safe” blue states are tied or favoring Romney. Now Romney is the one with multiple paths to 270 electoral votes...

Their was a story at I think it was Ali_Pundit with his Obama contact, that Team Romney sent an internal poll to an underling and it went to the top, Axelrod and Jarret came unglued and Obama then said "You didn't build that"....

The point is, they are probably playing to his weaknesses and it wouldn't surpise me if they have a shrink aboard to learn how to play him.

Another point to your shell game, Yes, they rop-a-doped him by going after his weak 08' winners, but now he is going after his deep blue prize give-me's.

If that rumor of a purposefully leaked memo is correct, and they got under their skin, their internals back then were way better than anyone knew, and potentially Team Obama knew they were weak in more places than they ever let on.
