Barack Obama will be in Dubuque, Iowa on Sept.13th

There will be free buses leaving Madison, WI to go there. You can expect some very nice people of all ages going to the event.

It will be part of a documentary. Check it out...or watch it all later.

The major subject will be the Iraq War. People can see Barack Obama and then perhaps do some volunteer work.

We are seriously on this puppy.

1. I live in south of Madison in rockford.

If my husband either can get his car fixed or can take off that day, maybe I could go there and meet up or something.
how long does it take to get there?

2. Awesome!

Edit on the question I just asked you!

Wrong Rockford

I was thinking Rockford, Illinois for some reason.. DOH!!

You're in Rockford, IA, right?

3. Ain't got the statistics handy, but I'm getting two trends on Sen. Obama.

The first is kind of a media-generated notion, and I instinctively distrust it, that says he is not drawing the poll numbers of Sen. Clinton and has "fallen back" from an initial peak against her campaign.

But people I speak with who have gone to hear him in person this past spring and especially this summer uniformly say the crowds are huge, attentive, and exuberantly supportive.

From afar, my hunch is the latter group has got it right.
