.... and that Florida is the sneak attack surprise.

Of course, it helps that Obama is ahead in Ohio. But it sounds like the public emphasis on Ohio is making Rmoney spend most of his time and money there.

In the mean time, I hope that Obama in Florida is so organized and GOTV so wired that it surprises the conventional, mainstream media pundits and comes in strong for Obama.

If Obama takes Florida, the game really is over for Rmoney; Obama could lose almost all of the other swing states and still get 270 electoral votes.
