Tell Us: Should Mitt Romney Pass on Pennsylvania?
Pennsylvania's swing state status may be in doubt as Mitt Romney seems less interested in campaigning here
Pennsylvania's swing-state status may be in jeopardy as GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney seems to place little importance on winning votes here, according to a PoliticsPa report.
Voters here have elected a Republican governor and senator - but not a GOP president since George H.W. Bush in 1988. A recent poll has moved Pennsylvania from the toss-up category to "lean Dem."
Romney made a drive-by campaign stop in the Lehigh Valley last year.
What do you think? Should Romney spend more time and money campaigning in the Keystone State?

well if he does show up, at least it will be good to see a great comedian in action. I wonder if he will be wearing his famous flip flops.

You must be on the government dole.... or is it public employee? Rather have the commie Obama in there, because you think you'll get a bigger handout.

Liberals are Losers....its no big deal that the Republican Idea Health Plan passed. They wanted it so bad in the 1990's. Policitics as usual because a dem got their idea passed. no goverment worker or public employee here. I'm a small business owner that gets a $2100 month quote to buy health insurance. I guess you are one of the lucky ones that can afford that.

Obama doesn't have a chance. Even his supporters wish Hillary won and are now voting for Romney

He needs to tell PA he cares. His telling non believers he is the best person for the job and what he will do for us. If you LOVE AMERICA you wil vote for Romey.

So the implication here is that if you vote for the incumbent president you don't love America? That is incredibly insulting and ridiculous. You didn't even spell the challenger's name right.

if you LOVE AMERICA you will vote regardless, sickening how many Americans do not vote. In 2008 only 63 percent of registered voters voted.

You Patch wonks only weigh in if somebody is taking a shot at Obama. I never see you post when somebody is taking a shot at Romney. Just further evidence that even at this level, the press is in the bag for Obama.
Tony

Press isn't in the bag for Obama. He's been quite criticized. However, Romney can't relate with anyone, unless they have half a brain or less. In PA for instance, he went down to "Wawaz" and bought a sub. "Wawaz" wth is a "Wawaz". Oh he meant Wawa. You know I do enjoy eating at McDonald and Wendy. How about Taco Bellz and Burger Kingz. Sounds ridiculous, you know why...because it is. lol

incredibly wise....ha. yea okay. wise to vote for a BIG government guy like Romney. Name one thing he has done that has principal to it that was not Big Government like. All the idiots voted Romney to this election, instead of true conservatives like Paul or Gary Johnson. Good luck with Mr. Etch-A-Sketch. He will not change anything. He's for national healthcare, he said so. He didn't do much as Governor and will not as President either.

Romney is a highly successful business man. He understands how business and an economy works. That's what we need now. Not a little community organizer who has never held a real job that produces anything tangible.
How's that change workin' for ya'.
Tony
12:58 pm on Monday, June 25, 2012
A business man will be a great president??? I guess George Washington was a successful business man as well, Jefferson, Lincoln. Only successful business men would be good. But then we need to define successful. Bernie Madoff was a success at what he did. So is Romney to an extent, with all the american jobs he cut and shipped overseas. I wonder how that change is workin for those folks and his old state where he passed RomneyCare.

If you love the status quo or worse then vote for Romney.

Well, since Obama brought about such "change", then the status quo is now Obama's doing.... you know, 15% unemployment. Massive debt. If you want the status quo, Barry Obama, the little community organizer, is your man.

To be fair it took 8 years to destroy the country, can't be fixed in 4. He tried but those House repubs are blocking even things they said they agreed with. hmmm i guess that's why only about 8 or 9% of americans like the House.

I know lots of politicians lie, but this man lies about EVERYTHING. It says a lot about his character, or lack of character. Why would anyone vote for this man who doesn't even have the backbone to stand up for his own record?

You're right, H smith. There isn't ONE good reason for anyone to vote for this flopper.

Romney is clueless and will never be President. He has lost the Independent and Latino vote.

Oh ya... he's lost the independent vote. That's why he's tied in the polls with Obuma.

How can anyone vote for this moron? He is on record for saying that he doesn't care about what happens to Europes economy. My 12 year old son knows that whats happens over seas directly effect our economy. I dont agree with everything Oboma has done or hasn't done in his first term, but he is the lesser of the 2 evils. God help us all if Romney win the election

So Obama, who attended the White Man Hater Church, with Reverend Wright, is better, huh? Notice how Obama does not attend any church now that he can't go to the America and white man hater church of Reverend Wrong.
Tony
12:54 pm on Monday, June 25, 2012
well I am not sure if it is found in their scriptures that its a White Man Hating Church, but just some nut up there ranting on stage. However up to 1978 Romney's church hated minorities, especially black people. It was a sin to marry any minority or black skinned person. Also the 'N' word was cited multiple times through out their Godly scriptures. That's not what America is about. Hate. So maybe when Joseph Smith comes down from planet Kolob we will be saved. That sir is fact. He lives on planet Kolob. Fact.

To: Liberals are Losers, are you like in the 3rd grade? Do you really expect anyone to take you seriously with a handle like this? And by the way... that "Hope and Change" is working just fine. Change is a process, not an event. Now, grow up.

PA has a large continency of knee jerk liberals. Unfortunately, for Romney to come to PA may be wasting his resources.
Donald Olson

There are too many people in PA that can see Romney for what he is. Why has he only won one election in his vast political career. As for the church comment, services are held in the White House. Would you like to have the Obamas and the secret service interupting your services. Of coarse that is if you attend church services. Get real!

status quo is the last 4 yrs. I am not offened by Romney. I am however offened by those who do NOT contribute to our society in a productive,functional responcible capacity; be cause they are NOT socially responcible and need govenment to be daddy. To have to carry the extra dead weight of those who will not contribute is OFFENSIVE.

You're right! Every new-born should pay taxes as soon as he pops out, and get a job right after thay cut the cord.
And what about all those cronies taking up space in "intensive care" units?
