National Republicans shifting Missouri presidential resources to Florida

"— Citing confidence in his chances in the state, Mitt Romney’s presidential campaign has shifted many of their resources out of Missouri to the battleground state of Florida.

Quietly this week, the Romney campaign and Republican National Committee’s Missouri Communications Director, Tom Brandt, was moved from St. Louis to Ft. Lauderdale to assist with the party’s effort Florida, a critical swing state.

“We’re confident that Missouri will deliver it’s electoral votes to Governor Romney in November,” RNC spokesman Matt Connelly said in a statement to PoliticMo. “Accordingly, we have made the strategic decision to shift our Missouri Victory Communications Director to Florida where his efforts will have a greater impact on ensuring we elect Mitt Romney as the next President of the United States.”

According to the Real Clear Politics Average of all polls taken Missouri, Romney leads President Obama by more than 7.3 percent in the state. Florida, however, is more competitive. Obama has led Romney in most recent polls by just a few points, within the margin of error of most polls. Earlier this month, Romney one point leads in two polls."

Should Obama to MO (or maybe AZ) move in simply to force Mittens back there or does Claire want him to stay out?

lets hope we see some shift in AZ this week. That would really nail Willard,the Mormons in Mesa and Scottsdale at doing their Fasts for the Willard,which means their White Horse Prophecy guy ain't doing to good. That group has pissed a ton of AZ folks off and it's looking like payback time.
