The Tribune-Revie is the conservative paper in Pittsburgh, and neither Romney nor Obama seem to be spending any time there.

Still, this is a real eye opener. I think Obama is currently winning, but his support runs a mile wide but only a fraction of an inch deep.

Romney, if he ever truly gets on message and stays there, can definitely win this.

I agree with you. If I were Romney, I wouldn’t spend one dime in PA. It would be marvelous if they voted for Romney. Same for California. Doesn’t mean it’s going to happen.

The last poll out of Pennsy had Obama at, like 55 and Romney at like 39, or something.

There are at least 3 threads on it here. I think it was Rasmussen, but I could be wrong.

In all reality right now this race is up for grabs, but that makes me think advantage Romney.

“Everyone NEEDS to keep in mind that the best, most accurate polls are the ones done by the campaigns that never see the light of day. Those are the ones that drive their actions, not these things being put out by the MSM.”

This is true.

Sounds like a margin of error figure.Romney could actually be ahead there.Force Osama Obama to spend serious $$$ to win what should be a walk in the park for him!

Earlier in the day, PA was for Obama 85 to 15.

I guess the strategy of pulling the ads for Romney is working.

Makes the election look more like Obama or no Obama and that’s one of Romney’s best selling points- he’s not Obama.

“Why any coal producing state would vote for coal hating Obozo is beyond my ability to reason.”

He didn’t hide his dislike of coal in the last election, going so far as to promise to shut down coal fired power plants and Pennsylvania still went blue.

Rasmussen has Romney down around 8 points, I believe.

Yes but rhetoric and actually doing is two different things. The people in PA now see what he’s doing/done. I think coal country will go Romney. It’s the cities that over take the state. Just like MOST blue states.

“Yeah, that 0bama can get even 10% after 4 years of the economic plague!!”

Kind of shows the weakness of the republican candidate, doesn’t it?

I may be wrong but I believe had Palin run, it wouldn’t even be close now. A strong conservative is what we need and haven’t had since Reagan. It makes me want to puke when I see anyone comparing Romney favorably with Reagan.

Romney out Kerrys Kerry

If they don’t stop the Voter ID bill he might have a slim chance.

A poll just yesterday had Obozo up by 12.

Yes, Rasmussen had it at O 51, R 39. That was VERY depressing. But this poll sounds more realistic — and, of course, more encouraging.

You can't win the prize when you're not in the ring.

You go with the candidate you have. The next President will likely choose three Supreme Court justices; I'd rather deny Obama that power.
