Bill Clinton is the number one Obama/Biden surrogate (probably a bigger draw than Biden and possibly a bigger one than Obama himself).
At the very least this ties him up in a state that should be a nice-to-have stretch win for Romney (as opposed to a MUST-WIN), and sheds lots of light into the concern that the Obama Campaign must now have for holding the state.
I still think PA is going for Obama and was going to regardless (voter fraud in Philly is almost impossible to overcome in Presidential elections) ... but Romney made a very good move leveraging his much larger remaining warchest to stage a late-play for the state. Obama’s clearly reacting to that, and not only dedicating Clinton but also a good chunk of his much smaller remaining warchest there. Both of which would be better utilized elsewhere.
I think that’s a great assessment.
PA must be in danger. Coal, assault weapons ban, Catholics- take your pick.
There’s a nat gas thing happening, no thanks to the NO Fracking weenies.
Good place for Clinton to lose his voice.
