"If Romney's buying advertising in Philadelphia, it means it's in play. It means that it's in play. And, of course, "Bite Me" is in Pennsylvania. Minnesota is, I think, a three-point state right now. So Romney is buying advertising time in Philadelphia."

Whoohah! The bombshell news is Romney isn't just playing in PA - he's buying advertising time in Deep Blue, Democrat-rich Philadelphia! Now that is bold strategery. I didn't think he had in him! Can you imagine what Obama, the Democrats and the MSM must be thinking? One thing is for sure: PHL is definitely in play!

Aside from “walking around money”, why have the Dems been so much better at getting early voters?

I am against early voting, and don’t have it here, but IF I did, I would probably take advantage of it anyway.

In fact I would think GOP voters with jobs would definitely take advantage of flexible voting.

Is there some reason I am missing?

A few weeks ago, the MSM was not only citing polls that said more people expected Obama to win, they were acting as if those polls were predictors of the outcome.

Now, not so much.

If we’re making a major play for PA...wow.

I’ve been wondering how you can buy tv time on such relatively short notice. I would have thought that it was all booked much further in advance. Anybody?

The FOX analysts have been saying the Philly suburbs, and other affluent suburbs in other swing states are places where Romney can do well. The Romney campaign lately seems to be doing what the FOX analysts recommend within 2 or 3 days, such as going heavier in Wisconsin.

He’s buying there because honestly, he’s got the rest of the state by a large margin.... You need to come out of Philly without getting overwhelmed to win as a Republican in PA.

Based on my experience this election cycle, Romney has most of the rest of the state well won, so if he can simply come out of Philly without being overrun he’ll win.

Obviously he should be buying elsewhere too, but its an interesting play.... I’d say Romney is going to surprise everyone with how well he’ll do in the Philly suburbs, and I thought that before this buy... the buy certainly will make that even better.

Wasn't Rocky filmed in Philly? Mitt beating Obama in PA is definitely along the lines of that story. Maybe some Photoshop savvy Freeper can superimpose Mitt's photo on the image below.

well my family members in Pittsburgh definitely agree with this analysis. On a different note, I heard just the tail end this am on Rush’s show regarding an SOS app that was used by Steve Jobs. Can someone tell me the name?

What ad are the running? I like the debate ad, about reaching across the aisle.

Maybe the wildin’ is getting to be too much Philly. Ya think?!

Contrary to the insanity of socialism, the race hate and violence against whitey game Obama has played, does not help him. Racist mobs hate, attack and scapegoat everyone who is not of their color.

“Diversity” race pride, aka racism, is not a virtue nor a path for success in American life. It’s a fast track to prison. For a city swamped with Black rage, crime and wildin’, the road map leads straight to Detroit.
