Mitt Romney's campaign insists the race for the Republican nomination is all about securing delegates. But in a move that suggests they also understand the benefits of outright winning a state, the former Massachusetts governor is planning to step up his campaigning in delegate-rich Illinois ahead of the state's primary Tuesday.

On Friday morning, Romney is set to hold a meet-and-greet with voters in Rosemont, Ill., before traveling to Puerto Rico, where he'll campaign ahead of its nominating caucuses Sunday.

More indicators that the Romney camp knows it's "inevitability" is waning.

I think it's Ron's crowds not Santorum momentum, but maybe I'm biased.

I wonder if Romney will b e at the Rosemont convention center where Gingrich got all of 70 people yesterday while Ron got 5000?
