From CBS News' Scott Conroy:

(DES MOINES, IOWA) - Sarah Palin is set to embark on an extensive bus tour of Pennsylvania next week, CBS News has learned.

Although recent polls show the Republican ticket trailing by double digits in the state, the McCain campaign appears to be largely resting its hopes for Election Day victory on a come-from-behind win in Pennsylvania.

Palin's Pennsylvania tour is set to begin on Tuesday in Harrisburg and Hershey. She is then scheduled to return to Missouri - a red state that the Republicans must win - before heading back to Pennsylvania for several other campaign stops, including one in Erie, according to a campaign source.

you guys just keep fueling the internet conspiracy theorists...just like TWA800 was shot down by the Navy and 911 was caused by the Bush Administration.
Incredible.

Phillip Berg got his case dismissed Friday against Obama and is now appealing to the Supreme Court. Where is he getting his money to pursue all this court action? How about the RNC, stealth PACs and 527s. This same guy sued President Bush for "causing 911"...what a whackjob.

Hawaii is one state where birth certificates are not public record. You''re probably not hearing much talk about the subject because it''s just that....conspiracy trash talk. Bill O''Reilly on his talk show 10/13/08 claimed "anyone who still has doubts on the authenticity of the Obama birth certificate is a nutjob".

McCain (born in Panama at an AFB) went through 3 lawsuits of his own, claiming he was not eligible for office. All dismissed as well.

Sounds like a Jerome Corsi novel... conspiring officials at the Hawaii Department of Health, the Cook County (Ill.) Bureau of Vital Statistics, the Illinois Secretary of State%u2019s office, the Attorney Registration & Disciplinary Commission of the Supreme Court of Illinois, and the US State Dept (who issues passports) are all hatching a left wing plot.

Who even cares about Palin anymore.; Reply to this comment

by roc2341 October 26, 2008 12:05 AM EDT: Nov.4th:Day of Freedom from the likes of OneAmerican7,NEEDERBAUR, and MSSpahr. Yes, Nov.4th will be the day when all 3 of these people/their kind will enclose themselves within compounds, continue the practices of division and blame everyone else for their situation in life. No taking upon responsibility for themselves and being decent role models to the young/others around them. No they live on only through having others wallow in the misery which resides in their minds/souls. Poor people. It''s really sad!; Reply to this comment

by msspahr October 25, 2008 9:40 PM EDT: The finger pointing and name calling against Sarah Palin is unwarranted and very ugly. I''ve never seen anyone else treated in such a vile manner as her. The MSM set out to squash this brilliant, accomplished, beautiful woman and with the help of the followers of Pied Piper Obama, have managed to get all the little soldiers to march in line behind their Chosen One to kick her to the curb. When the Obama honeymoon is over and you still don''t have your free lunch, your socialized health care, your fair share of Joe the Plumber''s profits, maybe you''ll see Obama for the liar that he is. The Empty Suit will always be just an empty suit.; Reply to this comment
