How has nobody mentioned this mega-gaffe by Romney?

I'll keep this pretty short, but I am shocked that this one comment by Romney hasn't been getting a ton of attention.

Here is the quote that made my jaw drop:

"The second topic, which is you said you get a deduction for getting a plant overseas. Look, I've been in business for 25 years. I have no idea what you're talking about. I maybe need to get a new accountant."

Am I misreading that? Or did he just say he wished he would have got a deduction for outsourcing American jobs.

I am almost positive that is exactly what he said. That if it was true that you get a deduction for outsourcing, he should fire his accountant.....

Talk about a moment of honesty that reveals the true character of a candidate....

Can we flip a Republican Senator?

I've been looking at the polling for the Senate pretty closely and I have come to the conclusion that the most likely result is that we will win 57 seats plus 2 independents for 59. I have some hope for Martin in Georgia but it just doesn't seem to be in the cards.

McConnell is looking more and more likely to win in KY and he overuses the filibuster to ridiculous extremes. The dems really, really need to get that 60th vote to at least get through these filibusters to get things done.

Is there a Republican Senator out there who is vulnerable in 2010 who might be convinced to, at the very least, vote with the dems on filibusters?

The first segment of Hardball today was another great performance out of Matthews. He would not let Pfotenhauer spew her nonsense in trying to defend Palin's claim that the VP is "in charge of the Senate." (I'll update w/ video when possible.)He just went to town on her and did it in a pretty logical way. He seems energized now that he has the recent NBC/WSJ poll to back up his opinion.

I've been following the electoral college math, state polling, the strengths/weaknesses of the Obama organization and the trending of the election and I think I have figured out how the next 2 weeks will play out and which states are most important. In order, they are:

1. Pennsylvania
2. Virginia
3. Nevada
4. Florida
