1. How convenient that he's NOT making a speech and working the crowd..
Edited on Thu Sep-11-08 02:13 PM by Blue Belle
in a Swing state on September 11. No one will ever remember that he spoke at this event or even why we need to commemorate this day at all. No one will call it campaigning in an official sense... but it is certainly what he is doing.
