Romney Expanding the "Battleground"
Presidential campaigning had been completely and eerily absent in Pennsylvania this season, but Romney is changing that. Campaign advertisements started yesterday (that I noticed) and he'll be campaigning in Philadelphia on Sunday. Obama has responded by also ordering TV time in PA.

What is not clear, of course, is if Romney is campaigning in PA because he thinks PA is in play or if he just wants to give the appearance that he thinks PA is in play, trying to wag the dog to stir-up national momentum.
