I hope this is a head fake or some other tactic, and not a McLame Redux....
What?! I thought Pennsylvania was do-able for the Republican ticket.
I do not see how it can benefit any candidate to say “hey we can’t win your state so good bye, we wont even try”
Not again!!! How many millions was McLame sitting upon when he lost?
This has already been debunked.
He’s giving them to obama without a fight? Not a good signal to send. obama isn’t giving any state up, even though he has less money than Romney.
and so it begins.............
Note the source. TPM is a hard-left-biased news and opinion site.

There’s similar article about OH too.
This is just propaganda, there’s not way Romney can concede OH, MI, and PA.
The campaign is probably just saving resources until the DNC freak show is over, and then will go on a blitz.
Romney seems to have put enough resources to show that he really does want to be President, unlike McCain.
PA and MI are second tier states in most electoral strategies. This election will be won and lost with Ohio, Florida, Virginia and Wisconsin. Or more suscinctly, whomever wins three of the four of Ohio, Florida, Missouri and Pennsylvania will win the election, as always. PA trends Democrat. MO Republican.
> Romney, GOP Groups Pull Ads From Michigan and Pennsylvania
This is chess, folks.
Do NOT panic. Would you spend a lot of money on ads that are now stale...they have been working on new ones- the DNC and tonight’s speech by the president give us plenty of new ammo..
Senior Romney-Ryan campaign officials tell Fox News the campaign will launch an enormous media offensive on Friday, the day after President Obama accepts the Democratic Party’s nomination for a second term. The push will include ad buys in several states that will cost tens of millions of dollars…
Romney-Ryan officials did not repudiate such talk; indeed, one official, in speaking to Fox News, likened the offensive that will begin Thursday to the “daisy cutter” bombs used in the Iraq war.
Why spend tons of money when it’s fighting a free tv and written media featuring the DNC convention? Hold back a few days/weeks and then pick up after the free stuff subsides. JMO
Don’t think this is a give-up, or it shouldn’t be. Way to early to throw in the towel. Wonder what’s up? Hoping it’s a chess move, but every time I hope that some moron on the Supreme Court is taking my rights away.
See perdogg's apparent debunking links in #37 et al.
Admin, shite like this is agitprop authored and/or encouraged by the enemy with the goal of spreading FUD.
Like him or not, I seriesly doubt that Romney intends to roll over like that lapdog McCain.
DISINFORMATION.
Nice try.
never give up....never surrender
What a bunch of bunk. Finally, as of last week, Romney can BEGIN his advert offensive. We’ve seen him fight hard...there’s no way in hell he’d be throwing in the towel less than a week after nomination.
