There is no way in hell that Romney is winning in the general election but Obama is winning in PA by 6.

Polling suggests that may be the case....

Obama is leading in the RCP average Stillow.

In fact he's been leading for pretty much the entire time, which bodes very well for him, because the person who leads in the RCP average for most of the campaign, wins the election

Rass is O+6, PPP O+8....lets call it O+7 and all eat ice cream now.

My point is Stillow Romney is not going to win PA just like Obama is not going to win FL. Both campaigns are foolish if they don't recognize that now and concentrate their resources elsewhere.

PA remains a tier 2 pickup chance. The election will really have to turn on Obama to turn PA. FL IMO is likely to go Romney...so we have some agreement here.

Sorry ... comparing PA to FL is comparing apples to oranges .. FL is a true swing state & PA is not .. Obama has great chance of winning FL again much better than NC ..

BTW why do you think he is going to lose FL?

Sad we're validating PPP's poll with one of the worst preforming pollsters of the last presidential election cycle.

They are both partisan pollsters. Whattya gonna do? PPP even more so with the new cuddle fest with Kos and SEIU. Pretty reasonable to just average the two out and eat dessert.

I guess that ppp poll yesterday wasn't a fluke? I can't wait for the righties to now say that Ras is going lefty. Romney needs to give it up here...

Your wait is over. I do think Ras is trying to go left to reestablish himself as unbiased after looking biased in the 2010 cycle.

PA is a tossup right now.
