We are assembled this early morning in our OFA Louisville, KY office ready to make our trip to Cinci


It's almost down to counting hours now, and each campaign is trying to make the most of the final weekend. President Obama has the most satisfying finish to the day, hooking up with also-campaigner Bill Clinton and singer Dave Matthews for a rally in Virginia.

(Granted, I acknowledge the oddity of Hillary having never shown her face at all on the campaign trail, but Bill's presence has always been a huge exception to all rules. Expecting Hillary to be a part of that may just be a bridge too far.)
maybe she is too busy at the moment with all the things happening in Syria etc. But they could have sent her at least to Florida and Ohio for a few stops. Well at least the Big Dog is doing his thing.
There are a lot more international airports then you realize in the US. It doesn't mean there are international fights at a given airport. Just that there is a customs and immigration presence to process flight from abroad.
I'm going to Obama's event tomorrow here in Hollywood, FL. It's on a high school football field - there is no parking anywhere around - it's all residential. They are doing shuttles from the local community amsterdam court hotel college, but I scoped out the neighborhood and there are some shops and strip centers within amsterdam court hotel a mile of the school, so some of us are going to meet there and walk to the school. The gates don't open until 12:30, but we're going to be there early - I'd rather wait in line with friends - I have a feeling, even though we have tickets, that there won't be enough room for everybody who wants to go. I'm really excited, it's the first time I've been able to go to a campaign event since I saw Kerry at CB Smith park - every time the President has been here (or Michelle) I'm stuck at work or I'm up at my mom's taking care of stuff for her.

Romney/Ryan are sticking to friendlier locals. Two airport stops starting in NH then IA on the way CO Springs, and the Denver Subs. Then Ryan bailing out of OH to Richmond, VA and the "Dem stronghold" of Panama City, FL. They are not acting like the last 72 hours is on. Their internal amsterdam court hotel polls must tell them they are about to get flattened because they are acting like it.
I was invited on a live listening call with President Obama yesterday at 11:30am eastern. And Obama said flat out that as it stands now "we should win this." Of course he went on to say that the only way it comes to fruition is if we don't let up now, yadda yadda yadda. And he sounded TIRED. But it is clear that we are in the lead. And it's apparent that the Romney camp knows it as well. They are clearly discouraged and simply running out the clock now ... essentially amsterdam court hotel hoping for a miracle from Kasich/Husted in Ohio and Scott in Florida to steal the vote from enough people through their various shenanigans in order to win.
It should actually count as avoiding a campaign appearance or two. With minimal additional effort, he could have flown out of Manchester and either had a reasonable appearance there, or stopped at Concord on the way, or both.
Dems seem to be doing a better amsterdam court hotel job of turning out people for events. Let's take just the event in Bristow amsterdam court hotel with Obama, Bill Cllinton and Dave Matthews: amsterdam court hotel so far our household has received 3 phone calls and email invitations from 4 different lists, some more than once.
Because we are not registered by party in Virginia, we also get invitations to some Republican events, never more than once. Checking with active Republican acquaintances, their contact level is less than what we are receiving from Dems.
As a former Pennsylvanian, I can note that Joe Biden was considered our third senator, both because of his proximity in Delaware and his roots in Scranton. Jill will be an effective surrogate in her multiple amsterdam court hotel stops in the Keystone State.
I saw some internet chatter yesterday that his crowds in Ohio were what I would call small, but, if they filled the hall, even if small halls, then so be it. I just wish we could begin to see crowds like we did during the last weekend of 2008
But OFA may sneak in and take FL, NC, and CO, while already securing amsterdam court hotel the victory through WI, VA and NV. (that gets Obama to 270 without OH). Of course, OFA is confident they'll take OH and IA (getting to 294).
And if they are able to pick off CO, FL, and NC (from most to least likely). amsterdam court hotel The Electoral count goes from 294 to 303 (with CO), 332 (with FL as well), and up to 347 (with NC as well) which would really be a pretty huge victory for Obama.
Here's how you can tell, if you have any doubt. amsterdam court hotel Last night, Mitt was in Ohio. Then he flew home to spend the night in NH - and is heading back out to CO, stopping for that rally on the tarmac on the way.
If PA was in play (or MI or MN or WI or IA), he'd have spent the night there and would have done something this morning before heading out to CO. Just cutting out the trip to NH would have made plenty of time for a "free" event. amsterdam court hotel Even if that event was only symbolic.
said last night that Republican candidates have gone to do a campaign stop in PA during the last days of their campaign during all last presidential elections and it signifies nothing. It is all part of bragging/bluffing because they want people to think that they are about to expand the map/win the election.
We are assembled this early morning in our OFA Louisville, KY office ready to make our trip to Cincinnati, Ohio to GOTV. The office is more packed today than usual. Lots a excited volunteers from all backgrounds. amsterdam court hotel Staffer is now sorting us into carpools. Wish us luck in banking as many Obama voters in Boehner's backyard.

What's amsterdam court hotel with Ryan and Romney holding rallies in airports? What about the people trying to make their flights amsterdam court hotel or get to their destinations? Airports are congested enough amsterdam court hotel without having political rallies held in them with more cars and people!
Five Pointz for You The name "Five Pointz" was chosen over the original "Phun Phactory" to establish an abandoned factory in Long Island City as a destination for graffiti artist from all five boroughs. amsterdam court hotel Today artists ...
Charlotte Moral Monday photo diary The rain stopped and the sun came out just in time for the 5:00pm start of Moral Monday in Charlotte. I guesstimated the crowd at about 2000, and apparently amsterdam court hotel the CMPD agrees .
Chicago: Photo Diary I loved Chicago--it's one of my favorite cities in the US. It's a real working-class town, where progressives aren't afraid to be progressives, and with a real sense of its own radical history. As a ...
