Obama plans post-debate whirlwind tour (The America "Forewarned" Tour)
Politico ^ | 10-20-12 | ALEXANDER BURNS

Posted on 10/20/2012 4:27:56 PM PDT by Brandonmark

From the Obama campaign, a post-debate schedule that falls into the category of "You know it's the final two weeks when ...":

On Wednesday in Davenport, Iowa, President Obama will kick off a two day, around the clock campaign blitz across six battleground states. The “America Forward!” tour will crisscross the nation, reaching as many voters as possible about the critical choice in this election -- moving America forward toward an economy built to last with a strong middle class versus going back to the same policies that crashed our economy in the first place.

The President believes we have to work for every vote, and so every door knock, every phone call, and every volunteer could mean the difference between continuing our path forward or going back. On the “America Forward!” tour, the President will rally supporters, meet with volunteers, talk to undecided voters and cast his own ballot in this election.

“On Wednesday in Davenport, Iowa, President Obama will kick off a two day, around the clock campaign blitz across six battleground states.”

Two days? Whoopdeedo. Will he be at fundraisers for the other fourteen? Seriously, looking at the comments on Politico, the very first one says simply, “Walking the walk.” Please!

While I don’t have any concrete evidence, I am willing to bet that Romney will be on a two-week “sprint” leading up to Nov. 6. So let’s keep count of how many events Romney does vs Obama. Also see who is more efficient in their geographical planning.

Politico fascists are writing this up as campaign strategy for Buckwheat.

I do hope that one day the leftist freaks at Politico are banned from FR. Letting Politico into FR is akin to interrupting BBC broadcasts during WW II with messages from Goebbels.

After leaving Iowa on Wednesday, October 24, the President will rally voters in Denver, Colorado at the Meadow at City Park, followed by a late night grassroots event in Las Vegas, Nevada. The President will travel overnight to Tampa, Florida for a grassroots rally, and a tarmac event in Richmond, Virginia on Thursday. As the President crisscrosses the nation, he will spend time on Air Force One calling undecided voters, rallying National Team Leaders and volunteers and continuously engaging with Americans across the country about the choice in this election.

Following the event in Richmond, the President will then travel to Chicago to cast his ballot and make history by being the first sitting President to vote early in person. The President will end his two-day tour with an evening grassroots event in Cleveland, Ohio.

Iowa, Colorado, Nevada, Florida, Virginia, and Ohio. Interesting itinerary. No NH, MI, WI, NC, PA, etc. Makes one wonder why he is going to FL, which is supposed to be in the Romney camp. Maybe he is trying to help Nelson and Wasserman-Schultz. He is finishing up in Cleveland. I guess to check up on how voter fraud is going.

Is he taking Air Force 1, and who is paying for all of this?

Yes. He is assessed a first class ticket fee that is paid by his campaign.

Voting starts Monday in Texas. I am pretty sure Romney has a wrap. But vote early. You might get hurt in a car wreck with someone talking on an Obama phone and not be able to make it to the polls.
