Here’s what we’re watching today:
General Election Preview? President Obama and Mitt Romney will both be in Pennsylvania today. The President is fundraising in Philadelphia while Romney talks outside a shuttered factory in Allentown. The factory – the Allentown Metal Works – was visited by the president in 2009 when he was touting the stimulus. It’s all part of Romney’s plan to counter President Obama’s schedule and look like the nominee. http://bit.ly/iBrwVk
But Romney’s not sending the message of financial dominance he had hoped to send. He failed to reach $20 million in fundraising for the second quarter. And while that total bests the rest of the field, it falls short of his mark in the period after he announced his candidacy four years ago in 2007. http://on.wsj.com/kGUcdo
Meanwhile former President Bill Clinton weighs in on the Republican field and says he can understand why Michele Bachmann is doing so well.
