Did you read the really pathetic column by Scotty Ras trashing Romney this week.
It sounded like Peggy Noonan bs.

Ras has been battered by Axelrod and Nate " Daily Koz " Silver and I think he has buckled to their pressure .

He changed his national poll from +1 Rep to +2 Dem for no reason and did it quietly.
I suspect his state polling has been pressured to use the 2008 exit polling data too.

I don’t know what Ras is doing but I can tell you anyone who’s polling is showing Obama support in PA anywhere near 2008 levels if off by a long long way.

I think if Romney/Ryan don’t fight for PA, Obama wins PA by 2-5 points at best.

If Romney/Ryan decide to fight for it, its certainly something they could win, but for whatever reasons they are not fighting for it. I assume its a strategic decision.

I didn’t catch that change-— yet he came out yesterday with a poll showing that nationally thevGOP has its highest ID level in YEARS-—37.5.
