Where the candidates are today...

The President will be spending the next three days in Virginia on Debate Prep, meanwhile Romney and Ryan conclude a three-day swing thru Ohio. The VP will be in Delaware on RR and the only member of our team actually on the trail is Dr. Jill Biden who will be rousing volunteers in North Carolina. Hmm, Robme must feel secure about the next debate that he has continued to be on the trail--over confidence, maybe?:

Is a restaurant in Ohio. Historically it has been visited by many presidents and politicians. The food is meh, but its a 'must go to' place.

Not overconfidence - smart strategy.

Ohio was ours until last week, and now we have left it vulnerable to Romney winning it.

So Romney & Ryan are bunkering down in Ohio to take advantage of that opening.

Simple as that.

enough and now that he is you appear to be suggesting that he be hunkering down as Romney is in Ohio. He was in Ohio earlier this week, btw.

p.s.
the day after the debate the president will be in Ohio plus Clinton and Springsteen will also campaign for him there.

Also, expect PPP to have a poll out today showing Ohio closer than the four points it was last time they polled in late September. I'm sure there will be some here who will do the usual 'We're doomed' act even though it was close then and it will be close now, according to PPP.
