News today that the Romney campaign is downsizing in New Mexico, once considered a swing state: Romney Campaign Pulls 2 Key Staffers From New Mexico.

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — In the latest sign that Republicans are failing to gain traction in New Mexico, national party leaders are pulling two key staffers from their effort here to elect Mitt Romney.

State Republican Party spokeswoman Jamie Dickerson confirms the GOP Victory campaign’s Hispanic outreach director and the communications director are among those being moved as part of a shift in the Republican National Committee’s resources.

Party officials emphasized, however, that all of the state campaign offices will remain open and staffed through the election.

Looks like we're also going to keep a Democratic senatorial seat Democratic:

While New Mexico early in the campaign was considered a battleground state for national races, the National Republican Senatorial Committee recently pulled $3 million in television ad time it had reserved on behalf of U.S. Senate candidate Heather Wilson.

Jeff Bingaman is retiring. Martin Heinrich is ahead in the polls.

OT.

Itzhak Perlman sure knows how to hammer down on the fiddle.

They don't really have much of a chance, electorally college speaking, if the numbers stay anything close to where they are.

All the more reason to get out the vote. That way, Romney getting "spanked" would be putting it lightly.
