Get ready for the MSM to go all out shilling for Romney tonight...

from Politico:

Mike Allen: "After weeks of taking a beating in the media and from Republicans, Mitt Romney is finally catching some breaks, and is poised for a surge in more positive coverage IF he exceeds expectations tonight."

"A number of things broke his way in the past 24 hours. None of them, alone, suggests anything profound. But in totality, they offer Republicans reason for hope coming out of tonight: 1) The Biden gaffe referring to 'a middle class that has been buried the last four years.' Voters seem aware of who was in charge during those years. 2) The 2007 videotape of then-Senator Obama that surfaced last night and rocketed through right-wing media. The N.Y. Times and WashPost ignored it on their homepages this morning, but conservatives will force the MSM and voters to reckon with it. No doubt, some of the quotes could be used against President Obama. 3) A new NBC-WSJ-Marist poll shows Virginia and Florida tightening, and there is evidence that Romney efforts to target Hispanics in swing states is blunting Obama's edge. 4) It all comes down to tonight. If Romney rocks, he will put concerns about message and his campaign team to rest for a few days -- and put tougher attention back on Obama."
