COLUMBUS, Ohio - This will be seen in retrospect as the day liberals began to realize that Obama was going to lose the election, the day The Great Wall of Denial (erected by Nate Silver and the Democrat Graveyard Whistling Choir) proved itself too weak to withstand an encounter with reality.
Yesterday, Jim Messina called the Romney super-PAC’s ad buy in Pennsylvania “desperate.”
Today? Yeah, Obama’s buying ads in Pennsylvania.
Does this mean Romney is going to win Pennsylvania? No, but it does mean that it’s close enough that Team Obama couldn’t afford to let Romney air ads unopposed in Pennsylvania. And this news, coming just four days after it was reported that Team Obama is buying ads in Minnesota, is the best indication that Democrat insiders know that the president’s re-election is seriously endangered.
Liberals may be stupid, but they’re not so stupid they can’t understand what John Nolte’s headline means:
GALLUP: Romney Up 52-45% Among Early Voters
Dude. If Romney’s leading by SEVEN FREAKING POINTS in the early vote — and also leading by six points among voters who tell Gallup they plan to vote on Election Day, Nov. 6 — there is no way that Nate Silver can continue gazing at his Magic Forecasting Model™ and seeing a 72.9% chance of Obama being re-elected. He may continue telling that to his readers, but Nate cannot actually believe that.

UPDATE: Who’s been telling you about the “War on Coal“? Yeah, and here’s the Romney ad in Pennsylvania:

Here’s Mark Halperin on MSNBC, grudgingly admitting what the situation in Pennsylvania really means:

If Obama was winning, he could afford to ignore the Romney play in Minnesota and Pennsylvania. But . . . Obama isn’t winning.
What’s up with Mickey the Hutt Moore getting a 97 year old female to make an Obama campaign “ad” saying they should “burn the m*****f***** down”? What’s up with that?
Poll ping reference
I just almost peed my pants laughing so hard after reading this.
I guess they pushed POST too quick, because Romney and Obama are also slugging it out in Michigan. MICHIGAN.
Maybe some people in that state are worried when they hear about Jeep-Dodge-Chrysler moving out. Maybe SOMETHING is going on with Obama that is a big disincentive to business...
who knows. Hopefully people are getting a clue.
On November 6th, 2012, We the People are going to STAND OBAMA DOWN!

I was watching Frank Luntz on Hannity tonight and he said the two most effective ads on the air are both Romney’s . I saw both of them and they are very, very good. Meanwhile, I’m still being tortured with Obama ads in CA.
Why is Team Obama running ads in California?!
Prolly because they heard that I have copied Comedian Paul Rodriguez’ message of support for Mitt Romney titled “Nuestro Futuro” ( OUR FUTURE ) in Spanish to a CD and will play it on my boom box non-stop on Halloween.
See http://www.mittromney.com/es/blog/nuestro-futuro
I will put my CD boom box in my backpack and mingle with the masses at my brother-in-law’s house in SoCal, where we all gather at his ‘monstrously’ scary Halloween layout.
We have been doing this for year upon years. Even Univision has done a television report on the hundreds upon hundreds of people every year.
And a whole lot of them speak Spanish (as perhaps a second language). So I will be spreading support for Mitt Romney.
Yeah, Obama is trying to counteract ME ! .....
And on Wednesday morning 11/07 on the street corner, my CD boom box will be blaring Howard Cosell’s famous call “DOWN GOES FRAZIER!, DOWN GOES FRAZIER!, DOWN GOES FRAZIER!”
I’m not sure but he’s making me ill. I’ll never watch another Morgan Freeman movie again (he narrates the ad)
It would be interesting to see another poll done here. I saw one a few months back that showed him up +13. He won this state in 2008 by 24 points.
BTW, Newt predicts 54/46 Romney with 300+ EV.
By the way, when we win this thing, I will be watching for what Glen Beck has to say.
Here is what his radio program did the day after 2010 mid-terms:

I have never laughed so hard in my life.
that is the most disgusting ad ever. who are those lunatics in the ad??? it is even worse than the stupid girl talking about her first time.
I mean really???? Is that the best they can do???? Have mercy on us
hahahahahahaha! That was hilarious!
OMG... I had forgotten about that morning. I laughed so hard I almost rolled out of bed. Just can’t hardly wait for next week to vote. Oh dear God...please...happy days to be here again.
Because this ad and the others that are coming out now from the left are not meant for normal Americans. These ads are not aimed at Independants or even Undecideds. They are made strictly FOR THE DEMOCRAT BASE! These ads are disgusting because their party is disgusting!
A week before the election, this means the Democrats know they are in big trouble.
Then when I got home I played it on the computer for a couple days.
At a press conference in the White House, Mr Obama said: "The message of the election is I need to do a better job. I need to take direct responsibility for slow progress." ... Mr Obama said that voters were 'frustrated' by the pace of economic recovery while ruefully admitting that the Republican victories had been 'a shellacking'. 'I feel bad,' he said, abandoning his normal ebullient delivery for a sombre tone
How serious is Romney in Pennsylvania, Minnesota, and Michigan?Source: http://battlegroundwatch.com/2012/10/30/how-serious-is-romney-in-pennsylvania-minnesota-and-michigan/October 30, 2012 – 10:18 pmMark Murray of NBC has the ad spending numbers from the Romney campaign and his SuperPAC supporters:
Why Obama camp up in PA, MN, MI? Team Romney outspending Team Obama, 4.6M to 1.8M in PA this week, 3.1M to 725K in MN, 2M to 445K in MI
— Mark Murray (@mmurraypolitics) October 31, 2012
Plenty of this money is the SuperPAC moreso than the actual Romney campaign, but the point stands that in these outer Battlegrounds Team Romney is committing serious dollars at a 3:1 pace over Obama.
I agree. They knew at least when many of us at FR knew-—they had to. When Alelrod said 2 days ago, “no matter how things turn out, we gave it our bet shot,” he admitted defeat.
Bump to watch at home
