++ Robin Leach of the "Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous" is the new Romney surrogate claiming that criticizing the rich is a form of socialism.
++Willard Romney has decided to have outreach to the Latino community and is campaigning with Marco Rubio. Romney stonewalled a bunch of Latino voters in Arizona when asked to support the Dream Act. He now claims to be studying Rubio's Dream Act Lite, which would allow Latinos who serve in the military a route to citizenship.
++Romney is also courting the younger voters. His campaign's pitch is that "he's younger than John McCain." Harvard found that Obama has a 43%-26% lead among younger voters while 30% are undecided.
++Ann Romney pushed the envelope at a fund-raising dinner last night saying that "She was glad that some women have no choice."
++Ezra Klein saves you a lot of trouble in today's Washington Post where you can play election predicted. Just decide what the economic growth rate will be in June and the President's approval rate and Presto you will have the odds of the President winning re-election.
++The William Brennen Institute found that 25% of American voters may not cast their vote this year because they believe the politicians are beholding to Super Pacs.
++Meanwhile in the areas of polls, Gallup's tracking poll went from 47-44 Obama to today's 49%-42 Obama with his approval rate at 50% the last two days. Rasmussen has Romney ahead 47-44%. The Daily Kos poll has Obama ahead 49-41 with 7 undecided.
++ The University of New Hampshire has Obama ahead in the Granite state by 51-42% .
++More interesting is the Morrison Institute's poll of Arizona where Romney has a 44 to 42% lead. Not great for a Red State.
++Ron Paul , as he promised, won the most delegates in Iowa and also in Minnesota. It seems the Love Revolution voted in their own people, depriving Romney of the automatic vote. Watch this tension pay out in the months ahead.
