Right now Mitt is low in the polls, and might not even carry his home state.
The idea that the Liberal have is to weaken Mitt as much as they can right now, so that he cant count on winning his home state.

The Dems also know that if Mitt is weakened enough that this will cause the Republicans to have to spend money on Red States they had planed to count on but now are up for grabs.


In other words....The dems expect that Mitt is going to lead the ticket, and they plan to make Mitt to be on defence....forcing Mitt to spend money even on his home State just to keep the red states red......

This would mean that the Dems can play Offense!
The dems can save their money and not have to worry about a loss of a Blue State, and then can take the battle to Mitt in the red states only.......

This could allow Obama's coat tails to take control of the full Congress.

and THAT, is the reason the Dems are spending money now in Michigan



They smell blood in the water.....
So, in either case you logic is unreasonable---either Mitt is the strongest candidate and the Dems need to weaken him for when he wins the GOP or he is not the strongest candidate and then they are wasting their money. You said they would love to face Mitt---well, if that is the case--then why waste their money and let someone else win---let them spend their money taking down Mitt and then the dems can spend their money taking down who ever took down Mitt. If they want to face Mitt---then why get in the game?

Yes, you are right, they smell blood in the water---but I have listened to enough talk shows where the dems are just short up jumping up and down for joy---they never would have dreamed the GOP cons***uents would rise up against their strongest possibility all based on something he said years and years ago and ignore his record while defending candidates that are big government spenders, lobbyists, religious fanatics, and ethic violators.
