I know we were all wondering about that ARG, poll but wonder no more Sarah Palin is going to West Virgina


In what may be another signal that the troubled economy is forcing John McCain's campaign to play electoral map defense, Sarah Palin has scheduled a bus tour for Sunday through West Virginia, a state that's been leaning red throughout this presidential race.

Palin had already scheduled a bus tour of Pennsylvania on Saturday, but she will now repeat that act on Sunday by making various unannounced stops throughout West Virginia, culminating in a campaign event in southeast Ohio. It's a swing geographically reminiscent of Hillary Clinton's effort during the Democratic primary to court white working class voters in Appalachia. Clinton won the West Virginia primary over Barack Obama by a whopping 67-26 margin.

Surveys of West Virginia voters this year have consistently favored McCain, but state polls have closed in recent weeks as the global financial crisis has dominated the headlines. A CNN/Time poll conducted in late September showed McCain with a slight 50-46 lead over Obama, and an ARG poll released this week suggested Obama had rocketed to an eight-point over his Republican rival.


we may not win the state, but just even going there means they are paying for the travel and such, and thats all cash they aren't spending else where.

I know the ARG poll from yesterday showing Obama with an 8 point lead in West Virginia is likely an outlier, but then again, why not dream a little.

WELCOME HOME, WEST VIRGINIA!

8. McCain: "We're going to win by defending WV & NE"

Umm.. yeah.. right. When you're DEFENDING the reddest states in the country - that means that the pink ones are turning light blue, the light blue ones are turning dark blue.. and frankly - California is black. OBAMA BLACK BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!
