I firmly believe MI and PA are battleground, though it appears for now anyway Romney has conceded PA.
I really don’t think Obama can carry a rust state other than MN and IL if republicans bring on the full court press, however, Romney doesn’t need PA or MI to win, so perhaps its just stategy to concede things for now.
I am using PA as a bellweather, if R’s start buying big buys in PA, its an indication they know they have the race won.
Romney now back 5 in MI in a RV poll that oversamples Dems perhaps 2 points. In other words, it’s a dead heat.
If there truly are 10% undecided in Michigan, and that holds until election day, we’ll take it.
If you want to know whats happening you watch where he goes, WI is in play.
President Obama will be in Milwaukee next Saturday Sept. 22 for a campaign event and a campaign fundraiser. Details on the campaign event have not been released yet.

HJ, I am here in MI, and I had an interesting conversation with my "auto gnome". A while back we were discussing the Catholic Vote and I thought it would be a big player this time around.
My gnome noted @ their large Wayne Cty Catholic Church that: " (my name) you have no idea how angry people are over the Sibilus Ruling". The gnome noted these are non-politcal types that work hard and want time w/ the family, cook on the grille on the weekend. He noted many of the middle age guys who do the retreats or on the sports leagues @ church and going out for a cold one are talking about this Mandate.
Believe people believe, how can this not be a flippin' Blowout for Romney...
No GOP candidate has won PA since George H. Bush over Dukakis in 1988. I’ve never considered it a “swing state”.
