Local Rumor on the McCain Bethlehem Super Market Fiasco
Apparently the Supermarket was improvised. McCain was really stopping at that mall to open his new office. It was announced on some local radio stations he would be having an office opening party that day. From what I've heard he couldn't get enough volunteers to make the new office in the Westgate mall look full so the campaign improvised the trip to the Super Market. The McCain office in that mall has barely been open since his Surge lecture in the cheeze aisle.

Shows three things at least in this part of PA.

1) Terrible Advance Work
2) Unmotivated Base
3) Lack of a ground game

1. Interesting, interesting. We need PA badly so this is good all around.
Thanks for the report, Jake.

I remember how much work you did during the primary.
