Pressure is mounting a Senator Barack Obama
Plouffe is Senator Obama's chair and Rick Davis is Senator McCain's chair.
Dear Mr. Plouffe,
Thank you for responding to our proposal. Just to reiterate, we have proposed at least ten joint town hall meetings once a week until the week before the Democratic Convention begins. As we understand your counter-proposal, you have proposed only one town hall meeting before the Democratic Convention.
In keeping with our original proposal, we are planning a joint town hall meeting in Minnesota next Thursday evening (June 19, 2008). We will hold time on our schedule for joint town halls every Thursday night until the Democratic convention. I hope Senator Obama would reconsider his position and agree to join Senator McCain as early as next week.
We have also today accepted the invitation from Mrs. Ronald Reagan, Lynda Johnson Robb and Luci Baines Johnson to attend town hall meetings in July at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library and Lyndon B. Johnson Presidential Library. As Mrs. Johnson said, these town halls will truly be an opportunity to "deliberate the great issues of our time." Their sponsorship certainly meets our standards for a positive and productive opportunity for voters to interact with the candidates. I hope you will agree.
However, at this moment, we fear that our negotiations over joint town hall meetings are turning into a debate about process. That is exactly what we have always hoped to avoid, and why we proposed a town hall format that would render many of these process issues moot. As Senator Obama has said, he is prepared to meet "anywhere, anytime" for a town hall.
We remain committed to this idea because joint town hall meetings offer the best format for presenting both candidates' visions for our country's future in a substantive way. We have a chance to change the way presidential elections are run and elevate the political dialogue. Americans deserve this kind of opportunity, and we hope that Senator Obama will join us at town hall meetings throughout the summer months.
Sincerely,
Rick Davis
Trouble in paradise?

John McCain sits in as a good a position as possible for being behind. I say this not out of some delusions that a victory will be easy, but these are the key numbers.
McCain has 76% support from Conservatives.... this is a good thing... these voters should jump on board even though they may not agree with McCain on every issue.
secondly and this is where I see the most chance for gain. Obama leads by 28 among moderates. Come one I think those are the voters who were most caught up in Obama's hype.

Electoral Map -strategy room-
Keys to victory
A) above all keep Ohio and Florida
1. Keep Virginia and North Carolina
2. Keep Nevada
3. pick up Michigan
4.pick up New Hampshire
You will hear that Barack Obama will compete in Virginia and North Carolina in the final months of the campaign.... Maybe, but I doubt it, if he is in a position that he can spend money in those states most likely he has the election wrapped up.
At the rate these two candidates are going Barack Obama's name will be toxic in the southeast in about a week. All the money in the world will not be able to fix his bad name. Obama is new on the scene and he is not going to be welcome soon.
His message of putting the era of partisanship to rest was beyond false. He is the most divisive politician our country has seen in some time. I think people will have to wonder what exactly his change is... I have not figured it out yet.
Come July-November this will be an election based on issues and you have to believe that with the amount of time McCain and Obama have they can clearly define those issues. McCain and the GOP need to good job of explaining that "Big" oil is a relative term and they do not need to be scapegoated for our governments failures.
Time will tell and Obama has a strong machine, but at the end of the day if McCain can increase his support among women ever so slightly and energize the base he stands a great chance of winning. One thing is for sure Obama's partisan bickering is going to help get the base going and if McCain continues to emphasize his lower taxes we might pull this one out.
* as you can tell if you read this blog it is motivated by whatever is on my mind... that said I hope to keep giving you updates on my electoral outlook.

McCain stops in New Jersey tomorrow
I think it is very important that McCain makes his push in the North East. He may or may not come back empty handed, but in this particular campaign it is important to give the perception you can "expand" the "map". John McCain faces and uphill battle and he and everyone who supports him knows this, but I assure you this he will fight til the last vote is counted.
The good news for McCain is that with the exception of Barack Obama's acceptance speech Obama should not get anymore big bounces in the polls. John McCain needs to continue to put pressure on Obama, stay above 40% in polls, and make a second home in Michigan/Ohio.

John McCain town hall tonight!!
This should be a very exciting chance for McCain to take his ideas directly to the people.
the general election begins...
after a quick look at polling data the election has begun and Barack Obama's bounce has started us off...... 48 Obama 42 Mccain. Thats 10% left to fight for... and those who might change their mind. Not a bad starting place for either camp. Obamania has given him a slight lead, but as voters start to pay more attention as the election gets closer.. I would expect another nail bitter.
