Long Day for McCain in Final 24 Hours

(CBS)

From CBS News' John Bentley:


(MIAMI) – Seven rallies in seven states. That's the plan for John McCain today as he tries to cover as much ground as possible in the final 24 hours before Election Day, kicking it off with a Florida rally in Tampa. That's followed by trips to Blountville, Tennessee (conveniently sandwiched between the two battleground states of North Carolina and Virginia), Moon Township, Pennsylvania (outside Pittsburgh), Indianapolis, Roswell, New Mexico, Henderson, Nevada, and a final stop in the place where he has traditionally held his last political event of his campaigns, Prescott, Arizona.

McCain got a very early start on the day with a rally last night here in Miami just after midnight. "We've got one day left, one day left until we take America in a new direction. And we need your support on November the 4th and I need you out there. With your help we will win," McCain told a very enthusiastic crowd of 8,000, one of the best he has had on the trail. "We gotta have all of our rallies at this time of night, I'm telling you."

He'll need the help. The latest CBS News/New York Times poll shows Barack Obama with a doouble digit lead in the national polls, 54% to 41%.

I wonder is he up to it? It takes a lot of strength out of a Old Man.

The Republicans are depending on winning this election (and, future elections) by voter suppression and voter fraud by electronic voting machines. The GOP hasn%u2019t cared about winning any elections through positive results from policies beneficial to the American People knowing that they will stuff the ballot boxes at election time.

Vote to hold The Republican Party Accountable to the American People, and make sure your vote counts!

I tell you one thing, I give it to Obama, McCain , Palin and Biden. They have put in long hours for several weeks in this race. What ever the outcome, No one can say any of these folks are lazy. Not one Fred Thompson in that crowd.
