It’s all about the suburbs. Like it or not, but Romney is the kind of guy that the fiscal conservatives, social liberals/moderates that have money like.

There’s hardly any signs for Obama out, in fact I saw my first Obama 2012 bumper sticker last night, on a car with New Jersey license plate.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but if R & R take PA then winning OH is not critical.

Many Pennsyvanians cling to guns and bible...to many of them also cling to their welfare and the big G’teet.
Actually,its a strange mix out in rural Pa.
I know a guy who is disabled who owns hunting rifles and crossbows.
He cuts all his own fire wood and helps his father with his farming.

For a long time, expecting to win in PA has been like Charlie Brown expecting that Lucy won't yank the football THIS time. Philly always seems to manufacture JUST enough votes to bring the Dem over the finish line, even if it means recording 120% voter turnout.

That said, if PA is called for Mitt early in the evening, the election is over. Especially if Fox calls it before West Coast polls close (forget about the rest of the MSM calling it, even if overwhelmingly for Mitt).

What would make the biggest difference for Obama would be for him to actively support all of the down ballot Democratic contestants, which he has not done nor will he do. The support of the down ballot creates a structure conducive to winning. Romney knows that and works with other Republicans, however Obama is so inexperienced that this one aspect of running a major campaign has for some reason completely escaped his view, as if he does not need help from anyone but Joe Biden.

So, let us calm our restless hearts. The first time Obama ran he got lucky and skated into office by sheer magic. However, this second time around he is facing a substantial candidate and he is missing his retractable rollers and facing an uphill climb with only his media and university toadies exasperatingly blowing on his back.

Broad front tactics are best against an enemy with fewer resources.

Coat tails!

Hit PA, MI, NH, and even NJ with heavy adds. Obama will die trying to protect his deep blue homeground.

Pennsylvania is one of the few states that does not allow virtually any early or mail-in voting, so unlike most states, 99.8% of votes will be cast on November 6th. -——That makes Pennsylvania a juicy target for a big push in the final 10 days. Look for Romney and Ryan to do a lot of bouncing between Ohio and Penn in the closing days.

Took a drive through Beaver, Butler, Clarion and Armstrong counties on 10/15. I saw at least 200+ Romney signs and only 1 Obama sign.

Pa ping.

In Chester County I see much the same as been reported. 10-1 sign for Smith over Casey. Same for RR over 0.

The enthusiasm edge 0 had in 08 was huge and is gone this year.

I am doubly prepared for the black panther pussy cat party.
