I believe it. If they are watching the same absentee and early voting trends we are seeing in OH, they know that Zero has not built enough early lead to win. I personally think this is the first outfit to face reality.

The guy also said that the Romney trends were strong (and I think they are seeing the internal stuff that is leaking out of the others-- Romney up big among indies, middle class, now women, plus higher turnout among Rs).

One mor reason to think this is true: this is a smaller outfit than Gallup, Ras, Mason Dixon, and they have to juggle their resources more closely.

Oh and this: there was a little noticed story last week that one of the Zero PACs had pulled out of VA. Naturally, this got no play in the DriveBys.

Nonetheless, Obama simply will not give up on Florida. Better to keep hammering away at it, and not risk a clandestine ploy to get a candidate to pull resources or to give back airtime already scheduled with the media. You know who they’d gladly give that to if it were given up by the republicans.

It is about 27 days to the election, and it’s not time to trust outsiders or to let up in any other way.
