Battling into the Weekend

This upcoming weekend is the last weekend that the candidates have until the election. Obama, while talking to the press, warned everyone of McCain's attacks that are going to come this weekend. On his second day through Ohio, McCain was accompanied by the man himself, Arnold Schwarzenegger. Schwarzenegger committed on how he played many war hero and war people in movies, but the real war hero is McCain. He also stated how McCain served more time as a Vietnam POW than Obama as a senator. The fact of it is is that it's completely true. McCain was a POW for 5-1/2 years while Obama has been in the senate for only 4 years. People try to say that McCain truly isn't a war hero, bullcrap. It really frustrates me when I hear such things.

Obama stopped in Iowa to thank the people. Campaign aides said he was visiting as a symbolic move to mark where he began his quest for the presidency by winning Iowa's primary contest last January. I feel that this was very respectable to do for the people. Iowa was a big deal during the primaries as well as now. Even though he has the lead in Iowa, he still feels the need to thank the people and try to get more votes.

This article has a lot more in it but I don't feel that it is that important. I wish that Reuters had more framing but they don't; just facts. I have already voted but I still wish it would try to lead me one way or the other. Nobody has really talked about this article or what it is in the article because everyone has pretty much talked about how Obama has 'already' won. McCain has a chance to come back, but it's slim to none. We can only keep our fingers crossed.
