FIGHTING IN BLUE STATES IS A GOOD SIGN FOR ROMNEY, Jennifer Rubin writes:

The president and Mitt Romney are both suspending campaigning through Tuesday due to Hurricane Sandy, but that doesn’t mean there isn’t campaign news. To the delight of Romney forces, the map continues to expand, and without the campaign itself spending a dime.

After Romney super PACs announced spending plans for both Pennsylvania and Minnesota, the Obama campaign announced its own ad buys. Moreover, Vice President Biden is going to Pennsylvania on Thursday, and Bill Clinton is heading for Minnesota. Two heavily blue states are now, in effect, toss-ups.

Meanwhile, John Nolte sees “Desperation” on the other side of the aisle: “Obama Super PAC Leaks ‘Internal Polls’ to Left-wing Politico.”

John Kerry, call your office.
