6. Does that mean TX is in danger of going blue? He wouldn't be coming here if internals were good.
Or else it's for a private fundraiser to get some $$. Either way, it's a bad sign. :bounce:

15. Also in NM and IA
Honestly, this makes no sense for McCain to campaign in those states. Didn't McCain's campaign admit to giving up on them?

17. Bwahhh-haaa..just the thought that he feels a NEED to come down here
speaks volumes.
Somewhere here on DU I read that if Obama reached the low 40%'s in TX
that the Dem downtickets stood a REALLY good chance of winning their races. I take it Mcgrampass' own numbers are showing that mark has been reached/surpassed?
Even more reason for Texas Dems to volunteer for GOTV activities right up til and including Nov 4th!!


Pretty sure his trip down here/having to leave the battleground states for even a DAY is equivalent to a huge neon "game over" sign for his campaign.
