2. Good. Republicans who aren't very enthused anyway will stay home. |

Rain will not stop the hundreds of thousands of highly motivated Obama supporters. It will dampen the already tepid enthusiasm of McCain voters.

3. Go to the dollar store and get some $1 umbrellas to pass out people |

http://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?CityName=Philadelphia&state=PA&site=PHI&textField1=39.9525&textField2=-75.1657&FcstType=graphicalUse the National Weather Service instead.

It rained when Obama did a rally in West Chester. There werew 9000 people there, in spite of the rain.
A little rain never hurt anybody, said Obama.
We agree!!!
