BRISTOW, Va. (AP) — With the White House race in its final days, President Barack Obama and Bill Clinton hit the campaign trail together Saturday night.

Clinton, his voice hoarse from a flurry of campaign events, said he had given "my voice in the service of my president." The former president vouched for Obama's economic agenda, saying he had done a good job with a bad hand.

“car tags were from DC and MD as much as VA, mostly college kids looking for something to do on Saturday.”

His Virginia campaign workers. This was to get them fired up for the GOTV effort.
I wonder why Obama has events just for campaign workers while Romney has them for workers and voters.

Barry seemed well rested from all the sleep he got during the Sandy campaign break. Laying around doing nothing for a couple days did him good. Nice finish to his speech.

Clinton’s wore out from carrying him though. At one point it sounded like he called him “Morooco Bomber” LOL!

people in MD and DC haven’t really had a chance to see Dear Leader in person and this was probably their best opportunity to see him before he flies out one final time to Hawaii..

You "understand"? From whom? DU? Moveon? OFA?
Hmmm. Perkalong throws out:

I understand that the Romney crowds in Ohio have been similarly inflated.

And six people respond. Perkalong never responds back. Perkalong signed up a few short months ago. Do I detect a...

Concern Troll?

That’s the comment that I found strange.

Some people here are naturally concerned. About Ohio. About Iowa. About Pennsylvania. That’s fine. I understand.

But...

When you say something like “I heard Romney crowds in Ohio were inflated. I hope it’s not to make up for Romney struggling in the polls” it sets off alarms. It sounds like an Axelrod/Messina talking point.

In addition to suggesting crowds in Ohio were inflated to prop up Romney’s alleged sagging poll numbers Perkalong seems to be concerned about Romney’s presence in other swing states. From other threads:

“Add Iowa to the states likely to go sour. The Nov. 4 Des Moines Register poll is out showing President Obama with a 5 point lead - Romney only has 42.”

“This is why it is so mystifying that Romney has been spending so much time in other states like Wisconsin and now Pennsylvania. That is what McCain did.”

In each case Perkalong was confronted, and never responded. Concerned or trying to convince others?
