Romney says Obama camp thinks PA is in their pocket


Romney tells supporters at VFMA, "we're going to win Pennsylvania." Earlier, he told Philadelphia donors that would be a "shock." #?
Romney says Obama camp thinks PA is in their pocket & they don’t have to worry about it. Says he's going to win PA.


well last week their internal polling said it was a statistical tie with the president .I dont know if they have factored in their voter ID fraud .But regardless Obama camp should keep an eye there and Potus should possibly swing by.

And and he should definitely make a play for arizona if thats how romney wants to play it

In one of the richest areas of the state. The current congressman is POS Jim Gerlach R-pa-6th,

The Pres would be doing himself & us a big favor if they campaigned together.

All Obama #s i see & hear pretty much give Obama 10+ points & all i hear about is Ohio, Virginia & Florida, where #s are closer but still pulling for Obama.

In our house 3 outa 4 are pulling the straight "D" lever.....................

just days before the 2000 election. When asked by a reporter if he thought he would win if it came down to FL, he smirked (of course) and said: "If it comes down to Florida, I won't lose." Rmoney is too confident about his chances in PA. It's no secret that they are trying to sabotage the vote there, but a secret does exist or he would not be so bold.

“Welcome to Delaware County, better known as Romney-Ryan country, come on!” yelled Springfield Republican Party Chairman Michael Puppio, a former Delaware County councilman.

(snip)

“We not only need your votes – we need your help,” he said. “This election is not going to win itself… this is about everybody in this room.”

Doesn't sound like they are as confident as you want to project. There is no statistical tie. PA has 1.2 million more registered Democrats than rethugs and that is a fact.

Didn't you people see the video? It's been declared a win for Romney because Voter Id was passed.
