2. I hope Bill Clinton is with him. |

I suspect the Clintons, Obama and Biden will barnstorm Pa., Ohio and W Va and Va. over the final days of this campaign. What a terrific team to GOTV.

10. Yes. electoral-vote.com has Pennsylvania as "Strong Democratic" for a couple of weeks now. |
|
And I really don't think that's going to change.

It means they want big turnout there for all the Dem candidates.
There are no such thing as "internals" that show something different from 100% of the public polls. It's just a preposterous and unscientific notion to believe that there are. It's stupid, even. Polling methodologies are public and well-established. Believing that "internals" have some magical data capacity is just foolish.

12. Not necessarily. Do you HAVE to put a negative spin on everything? |

Touching base in a state, and shoring it up is what needs to be done---he is leaving NOTHING to chance.
Why are McCain AND Palin spending today in IA?. That is the stupefying question.
McCain was in Albuquerque,NM earlier today and could only draw a 1000 people at best. Watch the crowd tonite when the O train rolls into the same town.
The McFailin campaign is flailing, erratic, without a plan, for sure.
