The Schedules of the candidates are very telling
Edited on Mon Nov-01-04 04:56 PM by WI_DEM
Bush:
7:30 AM--airport rally in Wilmington, Ohio
9:30 AM--rally in Burgesttstown, Pa.
12:30 PM--Milwaukee, WI rally
3:05 PM--Des Moines, IA Rally
5:20 PM--Sioux Falls, IA Rally
8:45 PM--Albuqurque, NM Rally (cancelled Michigan visit for this)
11:35 PM--Dallas Rally

Kerry:
10:15 AM--Orlando, FL.
1:40 PM--Milwaukee, WI rally
6:05 PM--Detroit, MI rally
9:00 PM--Cleveland, OH Rally (with the boss)
11:30 PM--Toledo, OH rally
flies to La Crosse, WI to sleep!!

Boy, compared to Kerry's schedule--Bush's is absolutely frantic. Also, we always knew it came down to Ohio and Florida and Kerry is on target. Yes, he is including Wisconsin as well. Also, if Kerry were concerned about Pennsylvania he would be there today.

Cheney fresh back from Hawaii!! is making appearances today in Colorado Springs, Co, Sparks and Henderson, NV.

Edwards is in St. Paul, Mn, Des Moines, IA, Cincinnatti, OH, Pensacola and Pomparo Beach, FL. (with Jimmy Buffett)

11. Yes you can, and then the house votes to break it.
the map just shows what they would have to win to counter losing Florida.

3. Also, We need to compare Kerry/Bush's Milwaukee WI rally #
and see who has the bigger crowds. I'm willing to bet the farm it'll be Kerry's while * still demands loyality oaths.

8. No. Not size. Intensity!
Bush was indoors. We and Kerry were outdoors. I stood in the rain for two hours to see the man. Would Bush's people do that!

I wouldn't be surprised it they had more people. But we were more committed.

We saw Airforce One go overhead as we stood there. We all shouted at it "Yeah, that's right. Get outta town!!"

12. Several hundred I think
There's a thread somewhere that shows it a bit behind Kerry and his daughters. I've no experience trying to gauge such a thing.

It was no Madison crowd, but considering the weather, I think we did pretty well. I understand the downtown workers would come out and then go back in to work, so the crowd number kept shifting.

15. I read that mainly Kerry was hitting major markets today rather
than concentrating on turnout. But, tonight in Cleveland with the Boss will be BIG.

13. they would make the rally
They would pay some to stand in line for them. This is why shrub likes to be on time. Can't make them wait they would get mad.

17. Loyalty Oaths
Has anyone seen what the loyalty oath says/asks?
Has anyone gone to Cursor.com to see the "deck of cards" in the war room there? Pretty dang funny, there is one about loyalty oaths.
