A quick look at the schedules indicate that Kerry is in trouble:
Kerry schedule (71% in Blue states):
Mon: PA Tues: WI, NM, NV Wed: 2 stops in IA, and MN Thur: OH
Bush schedule (78% in blue states):
Tues: Cuba City, WI, Onalaski, WI, and IA Wed: PA, OH, and MI Thur: MN, OH, & PA
Flipped would still mean Kerry and Bush in blue states..:) But I see your point..:)
Good observation.
Nobody in FL?
You are exactly right! I appreiciate your post because this is one of the key indicators of the election. Bush is cornering Kerry just like he's whooping the terroist: He's on offense! Kerry's on defense.
i keep hearing bad news for BUsh that he isnt ahead "enough" in the polls
God please tell me that the internals have Bush up HUGE
i also heard that Bush was far behind in early voting
Yep. Something tells me if Kerry were REALLY ahead, he'd be spending most of his time the last week of the campaign trying to go to as many Red States as possible. Instead, he's STILL playing defense. If he has to defend what he should have already locked down, bottom line - this is not a candidate who's set to win next week folks.
Where in PA?
Especially if they have to yank Clinton out to campaign in Philly. Philly is pretty much like Bush campaigning in Houston so doenst make sense.
That is a DNC talking point ... obviously how does anybody yet know?
Wow can't believe MI. Too bad HI is so far away or I'm sure GWB would be there 2.
Gallop today shows Bush up by 5 and that's weekend polling. Also, just heard on the radio that Kerry's making an emergency visit tonight to Michigan. Sounds like desperation to me!
the internals must show that dems aint impressed with kerry. my guess is that wisconsin will decide this:
so let's bury kerry in the land of dairy.
Let's add this up shall we?
MN=10
NM=5
NV=5
WI=10
IA=7
Total=37 electoral votes
Throw in Hawaii's 4 and that brings the total to 41
Nope. It doesn't make sense. If Kerry's already gotten PA sewn up, he wouldn't need Clinton there. The fact he does tends to lend credence to the notion that PA is anything but in Kerry's bag.
early voting, schmearly voting, it doesnt matter until all the votes are cast and counted.
It's just like Rush said. Kerry's campaigning in states that he should have a lock on. If I was advising the Bush campaign I'd schedule Bush for rallies deep in the heart of MA, NY, IL, and CA. It's time Bush bring down the gauntlet.
Did you hear that most all of the government offices were closed so the employees could attend the rally?!!! I thought this was against the law. Of course, that never stopped them before.
