President Obama’s senior campaign adviser David Axelrod said Wednesday he’d shave his signature mustache if Obama loses Minnesota, Michigan or Pennsylvania to Mitt Romney.
“I will shave off my mustache of 40 years if we lose any of those three states,” Axelrod declared on MSNBC’s "Morning Joe."
Provoked by recent polls, the campaigns have been in a turf war over traditionally blue states.
The Romney campaign says it sees an opening to steal some electoral votes that many believe Obama should’ve locked down by now. The Obama campaign says this is merely posturing by the Romney campaign, and a sign of desperation because Romney needs to expand his map for an Electoral College victory.
“They’re going to states that they’re simply not going to win in hopes that they can make something happen to compensate for the fact that we’re even or ahead in all of these battleground states,” Axelrod continued. “There’s not one of these battleground states that they can say with absolute confidence that they’re going to win.”
Recent polls have shown Romney within striking distance in Minnesota, Michigan and Pennsylvania, although the polling averages still favor Obama. Many analysts believe Romney is a long shot to overtake the president in any of the three because the states have leaned Democratic in recent elections.
