David Schuster on Current said there are stories that Rove is startng to pull out of Ohio.

Item #3 - The Obama campaign, I'm told, did internal polling in Ohio the past two days and found President Obama beating Mitt Romney in the Buckeye State by + 9 points. For weeks, the Obama campaign has been indicating that Ohio was moving more strongly in their direction. The post convention bounce Mitt Romney was hoping for didn't materialize nationally and the GOP convention appears not to have stopped Romney's slide in Ohio.

Ohio, as most political observers know, is a crucial battle ground state. It has 18 electoral votes and since 1944, the Buckeye State has backed the winner in every Presidential election except one (Ohio went for Nixon over Kennedy in 1960.) There are ways Mitt Romney could still get 270 electoral votes without winning Ohio. Republican PACS pulling money out of Ohio and investing it in other states are underscoring that point.

Still, most political analysts will tell you that Romney is in deep trouble—and Obama is flying high.

If Ohio is trending the president's way this strongly. I agree.
