Why I Have Faith In The Obama Campaign
McCain and Palin Campaigned Today in RW Strong Hold, Colo. SpringsMeanwhile, Obama was in Muncie, Indiana. Weekend campaign stops are critical. There are precious few left, and to use one of them in what should be a Republican strong hold and to use BOTH candidates shows me that the McCain campaign is on the defense.

You don't see Obama and Biden campaignining the West Village of NYC on a Saturday do you?

4. And to drive home another point someone mentioned ...
Palin is so unprepared at the moment, that she has become tethered to McCain. In fact, its unclear if she'll be ready for any solo campaigning. She has to "cram" for the debate.

Obama and Biden, on the other hand, are a fountain of knowledge and campaign savvy. They did their stint together, but now cover twice as much ground separately and all in battelground territories.

We are getting our message out there to more people.

I really wish people would have a more positive attitude about this. Yes, it is wishful thinking to beleive it will be a landslide but so many people seem convinced that we can't close the deal.

5. yes. They're doing more than twice the campaigning by splitting up
multiple events per day. Plus they're focusing on Obama-leaning states and tie states. They know how to read an electoral college map!
