Has mitt romney running neck and neck with the president both at 47%. is this a state therefore that campaign is beginning to be very worried about? absolutely, martin. i think theyre concerned about this state, a handful of other battle ground states like virginia, north carolina, which president obamacareried in 2008. and which as you point out, polls now show have really narrowed when it comes to the race between the president and mitt romney. so their strategy is to really barn storm quite...
