And the segment on this pretty much went like this:

"Romney is fucked in Virginia, Romney is fucked in Ohio, and Romney is fucked in Florida. The Republicans are at a loss for how this happened and the Romney campaign has virtually no options left".

On the one hand you always want to be ahead, as it feels better then being behind.

On the other hand I worry there is a segment of the population who would back the President who will say they "don't need me anymore." I worry about complacency.

Being ahead by even a few points means we have to work even harder.
