PERFECT area to campaign in. Hunters and hockey fans.

Very close to Detroit too and they’re still smarting over Kilpatrick.

I really think the two should take a nice long weekend off and spend some quality time with their families. The conventions and the media stress has probably worn them down some.

While I do not like McCain, I've little doubt that he's a big boy and can determine his own level of weariness and/or stress.

Of Gov. Palin, I have **NO** doubt on that point. The woman runs marathons, f'Heaven's sake! And she's in a 60-day marathon now. No problem, says I.

Both Palin & McCain specifically mentioned Michigan, PA & Ohio in their speeches. Think they know where the election will be won and by whom? I think so, as usual middle America. I’m voting MP but I’m in La La land so I’m not counting them out here yet but....you know what I’m sayin

My wife and I will be there. Tickets I believe, are already gone. I may have two extra tickets if there are any FReepers interested. I repeat, “may” have two tickets. I’ll know this morning.

McCain also mentioned New Hampshire. If the election turns out to be closer than what I suspect that it will be, NH’s 4 EVs could provide McCain/Palin with the margin of victory.

It would be very, very difficult for Obama to win the election without winning all three of MI, OH and PA; and if McCain sweeps the three states, it would be practically impossible for Obama to get to 270.

Amen. And if she works SE PA, she may swing New Jersey into play as well, considering the media market in southern and central NJ is tied to PA.

The big news in Philly yesterday was that #1 rated sports radio host Howard Eskin, a Hillary Democrat, was endorsing McCain and dissing Obama yesterday.

PA is in play, baby.

Does anyone have any idea on where I will be able to find a live streaming feed of this event? My nephew is a Boy Scout, and will be participating in the flag-raising at the start of this event in Sterling Heights -- I'd like to be able to watch it online. Any thoughts?

Thanks!
