I was wondering the same thing. If they were “locked up”, then why have events. I think this is highly unusual and has me more than a little worried. Candidates normally go to their home and wait for the results on election day.

Whoever said these states were "locked up?" Ohio is a nail biter and PA is a long time Dem state.

To me this shows he's willing to work for every vote. America sees that. He is not taking anything for granted.

Strategically, I think it's a brilliant move.

It’s not desperation - they were just discussing it on Fox. Shepard Smith said it was “unusual” but they were discussing it and said the candidates ALWAYS campaign on election day, but not usually in events. They typically do interviews on TV stations and try to get their face out there, especially local stations. They said this is just Romney’s way of doing it - do events instead of tv interviews - either way the media has to cover it.

Which honestly is smart to me. Riles people up in 2 important states, and Romney gets to avoid the Republican hating “gotcha” media interviewing him and trying to make up some gaffe on election day.

maybe because they know it is close and they know they have to win by a big margin due to the media and the left calling it for oabma early as they have done for before.
When the GOP says hang on the media and the left shout racist, look you blacks the republicans are trying to sipress your vote bla bla bla.

Lets face it of the media had done their job and we did ot have millions of racist blacks then this race wouidl be over two years ago.

Millions of blacks voting based on color.
Libya

Storm Sandy and where are the SPLIT SCREENS OF OABMA OUT THERE WHILST PEOPLE ARE FREEZING WIHT NO POWER, WATER, FOOD , GASOLINE?
The lies about the terrorist attack.
Work place violence at FT Hood when it was terrorism
TEH ECONOMY, how every group is worse off, women losing jobs, families losing homes, blacks with more poverty

ALL IGNORED BY THIS MEDIA
