Rick can't even carry his own state and beat Obama there?

Look at the confidence they have in Rick as to his chances in beating Obama.

Can't blame them. They know Rick best!

Well, the last time Rick ran for office in PA he got beat pretty bad, so I would say there was a good chance of him losing this state.

There's a good chance any of them will lose PA to Obama. What's surprising is Romney does better than Santorum against Obama there. I doubt Santorum polls better than Romney against Obama in Massachusetts, though it would be an interesting (albeit pointless, so both would get creamed) poll to see.

Santorum will lose Ohio once the people in PA start talking to the people in Ohio regarding Santorum's record.
