For McCain, It's the Pitts

Greg Sargent at TPM reports both Bill and Hillary Clinton will appear with Joe Biden in the Scranton area sometime this coming Sunday.

This is in light of recent polls showing Obama leaping away from McCain in the Keystone State-- today's Rasmussen poll shows Obama up a staggering 13 points, 54% to 41%. Other polls in the past few days give Obama a similar lead range: between 10 and 15 points.

So the question is: how long before cash strapped McCain makes a tough decision and bails out of PA?

Or, more pointedly, does McCain have a better shot at Virginia, Florida or Pennsylvania?

If these numbers hold, the legal limitations on how McCain spends his money will demand a few tough choices be made, and soon.
