Obama to give "important address" in Canton on Monday

The Repository (Canton, OH) ^ | Sunday, October 26, 2008 | ROBERT WANG

Healy said the campaign also had considered holding the event at Fawcett Stadium, but the campaign apparently went with the smaller civic center because of forecasts of chilly, rainy weather Monday.

So they had doubts of filling the larger venue and
empty seats just wouldn’t do, at least in the press photos.

Wuss’s.

[Perdogg]

Hillary Clinton will be his running mate.

[Hildy]

No entertainment. Let’s see how many show up.

[SE Mom]

Not his usual campagin stump speech?

Ok, so they’ve written a NEW campaign stump speech and he’ll deliver it in Canton, see how it plays- if more than two people faint, they’ll use it til the 3rd.

[Obadiah]

Exactly, this is just a stunt to look presidential and to try and close the deal. Of course, the MSM will lap this up like the good dogs they have proven themselves to be.

[Perdogg]

Will Colin Powell and Scott McClellam be there?

[Hildy]

Hmmmm....if his internals say he’s losing...could Biden’s aneurysm be acting up? I don’t know if you meant this seriously, but in this election I wouldn’t rule anything out.

[illinifan]

He just returned from Hawaii, hmmmmm...

[Netizen]

He’ll probably hammer home any latest dirt on Palin or McCain.

I really hope that this turns out be like the Dewey/Truman election and McCain/Palin win, leaving the O team and the media in the dust.

[realcleanguy]

We can only hope

[Perdogg]

I don’t know if I can make it to election day with my sanity. ;)

[CARTOUCHE]

Dying Grandma’s last wish, “Barry, you better tell the truth about that birth certificate cuz my attorney is going to produce it on my death anyway.” But why he would select Canton, Ohio as the location to make the mea culpa is curious.

[puroresu]

He'll do what he always does. He'll blame the current economic problems on “eight years of GOP rule”. He'll claim (falsely) to have warned against the impending mortgage debacle two years ago. He'll promise to give 95% of the people a tax cut by raising taxes on the other 5%. And he'll announce that he has a plan in the works to save the economy, which he'll reveal after the election. You know, he'll have to wait to see what economic conditions are like in January before he can say what he wants to do with any exactitude.

[queenkathy]

He likes to stand behind an important looking podium with impressive looking men in suits standing behind him.
Smoke in mirrors

[Joiseydude]

This is just a last-minute stunt. He’s just saying this in order to pull a bigger audience. It’ll be nothing new.

He'll be dropping hints about what his earth shattering (/sarc) 30 minute infomerical will be about.

[null and void]

I don’t know if I can make it to election day with my sanity. ;)

Too late to worry about that!

;^P

[teletech]

Some sort of RAT October surprise?

[jaz.357]

He just might play the “Hillary” card.

[spectre]

""I want to be there to support him," she said. "I think we're almost in a depression. I think he's going to bring back the economy. I think he's going to bring troops home from the war."

Behold the mentality of those who are worshiping the sun god..

[ladyvet]

We will be told by the man child to call him Emperor from now on.
