Look at their schedules over next two days Obama/Biden have 7 events in Ohio...

[WI_DEM]

meanwhile, McCain/Palin are scrambling to VA and NC--and WVA (Palin was there yesterday), what does that tell you?

Plus Michelle will be in Indiana on 10/15!

1. planning for maximum debate impact

2. Interesting. And I don't know about Hillary, but I think Bill is scheduled for

some rallies, too.

5. Bill was in Virginia Sunday night! n/t

6. And I think he's got more appearances lined up, too.

I saw an after-the-speech piece with Hillary, and she was naming off other destinations where Bill's presence had been requested.

BTW, I loved that he was in VA last night because all the pundits were saying "Why do you think Bill Clinton left the stage right away? What was the real reason?" Like it was a McCain bullshit line to Letterman about 'rushing off' to the airport. In Bill's case, it was TRUE!

3. Obama's pre-debate strategy. Make most of the location. nt

[monmouth]

4. McCain will be working on how to "whip somebody's something or

other."...LOL...

7. Excellent Obama strategy - key battlegrounds before the debate

Obama knows Ohio is a tough battleground, so just as he went to FL for the first debate prep and stumped while he was at it, he goes to OH while the Bidens and Clintons are helping shore up PA.

Then he goes on a canvassing tour of an Ohio street and generates some excitement, then in come the reinforcements while he does debate prep.

After the debate, I'll bet he does some more work in IN, NC and FL.

VA might be shored up with help from Kaine, Webb and Warner.

I really wish he'd make a 'surprise' stop in AK just once. Maybe he could take a picture by the Obama sign at the Gov's mansion. :evilgrin:
