The slum streets of Detroit are essentially head over heels in love with this whole Obama thing. The rest of the state, who knows.

So if McCain goes to Michigan that means he’s not pulling out of the state.

Gotta say though, the places he visits are odd choices. He has spent alot of time in Iowa, and every poll I have seen has him behind there bc of the ethanol issue.

What? There was just an FR post that said he was leaving Michigan, well according to two unnamed Republicans anyway.

It’s all based on politico. I made a couple of calls. I haven’t heard back so I don’t know the truth.

Obama is here in East Lansing right now.
The college Republicans were not allowed to hold their rally for McCain at Adams field per obama letting loose the secret service and Michigan State Police to stop them.

I see the fraudulent anti McCain Social Security ad that was proven false is still running here in Michigan.
Just viewed it.

I just posted in the thread about McCain pulling out of Michigan that it might be a ploy to get Obama to spend less in Michigan- you aren’t going to gain any traction when the Obama cultists are running 4 ads for every one you run. Let the state sit, have the state parties argue, and then flood the state with ads in the last week to remind people of why the policies of Obama and Granholm (and PLEASE tie those two together) are just plain bad. Don’t give Obama time to react. A huge gamble, but possibly...

“...according to two unnamed Republicans ..”

Chuck Hagel and David Gergen ;)

Amazing Michigan goes for Obama ... probably misery wanting company ... they want to make the rest of the country just like Michigan. Obama is Gov Granholm on steroids.

If b.hussein is in MI, perhaps he is not running as strong as he hoped? Trying to re-capture his support that may be moving to mccain?
