Romney Getting Crushed in His Home State
No one really expects Mitt Romney to win Massachusetts, but two new polls show him getting crushed in the state he once served as governor.

A Western New England University poll finds that President Obama is now ahead of Romney, 60% to 38%, among likely voters.

A Suffolk University poll shows Obama leading by a 64% to 31% margin.

I know that he has residences in a few, but I honestly don't know which he's a citizen of. It sort of amazes me that that's not been something the media's been yelping about, since they so often have in the past.
