McCain later invoked a few of his other friends at a Westerville, Ohio stop, naming them Rose the Teacher, Phil the Bricklayer and Wendy the Waitress. We only wish we were making this up.
McCain spoke in St. Charles, Missouri this morning and crosses the state to speak in Belton this afternoon. But he'll have to jockey for attention: Due to the stars' mis-aligning, Missouri is hosting not only McCain and Huckabee but also Vice-President Dick Cheney (in Clayton and Cape Girardeau) and, across party lines, former President Bill Clinton in the St. Louis suburb of Kirkwood on behalf of the Obama-Biden campaign. That's all tonight. Hope no one out there is planning to fly out of Missouri ahead of Air Force 2 through 20.
Obama himself is stumping in Orlando, Tampa and Miami, Florida today in honor of early voting in the Sunshine State. The polls are now open, and Hillary Clinton is coming along too to rally the voters--although she probably can't pull the lever for you. (That's got to be illegal, right?) Joe Biden has the day off.
The big news in the Dems' camp over the weekend was that former Secretary of State Colin Powell endorsed the Democratic candidate but at this point isn't expected to join any Obamas or Bidens on the road.
