DES MOINES, Iowa - Republican presidential nominee John McCain is planning a visit to Des Moines on Tuesday for a round-table discussion with small business people.

McCain plans to meet with a few small business people during a meeting at EFCO, a company that makes concrete forms.

The round-table discussion is scheduled to last an hour, beginning at 10 a.m.

McCain's wife, Cindy, is expected to join her husband during the visit.

Although McCain will meet with only a few business people, his campaign says about 200 local employees will be in the audience.

Why would Senator McCain be spending precious time in Iowa unless his internal polling tells him he has a chance there? RealClearPolitics has Senator Obama up by an average of 9.2% in Iowa.

Good question. After reaffirming his distaste for ethanol subsidies during the debate, why bother with IOWAY?

Exactly!! We need him in FL, OH, and CO. IA is too far gone to worry about. We’ve got a better chance of taking PA back than we do winning IA. Rick Davis, what are you doing???

Iowa is a farmer welfare state already in the Obama column. Palin should quit so she doesn’t get tainted by campaign.
It may be to late the way she is being handled.
