Just breaking on PoliticsPA. Will be at or close to the Pittsburgh Airport. Makes sense if he's on his way to Boston that night.

Why would you campaign on election day? Wouldn't you rather have your staff be running GOTV and the people attending your rally voting or volunteering? Seems dumb to me.

Cold. Very, very cold. But the crowd was huge and fired up.

Trying to stop people getting to the polls by causing a ton of traffic?

He has nothing to lose. May as well go for broke.

These are not rallies, they are pretty much to thank the GOTV efforts and to get his face on TV.  He will be in Pittsburgh and Cleveland after voting in Boston early.  He doesn't want to waste a minute.

Romney is in a frontal assault in Ohio (18 EV).  He has launched an attack on Obama's western flank in IA and WI.  (I think he takes IA).  Now, with Obama's eastern flank in PA crumbling, Romney has launched his second flank attack.  

If one of the flanks or the center falls, Romney wins.  

I did not see PA crumbling, but it is.

Going to Pennsylvania, while returning to Boston, has a certain symmetry to it; Clinton there today, in a way he (Romney) neutralizes what ever good Clinton did for Obama, even sweeter, he knows he get's the last word, not only there - but also in Ohio, where Obama was today; I wonder will Obama be tempted to board Air Force One and make a quick stop over there as well; well if that's the case, Romney could fly back there again afterwards, just for good measure.
