Via Ben Smith at the Politico, I am directed to this report from the Web site of Radio Iowa, whose correspondent attended a McCain-Palin rally at Cedar Rapids (which Sarracuda called "Grand Rapids," which is in Michigan, which is were she was yesterday; golly, when people say lower 48, they really mean it, there's a lotta states!).
Anyway this little detail is a stinger:
McCain starts speaking 18 minutes into the rally. He begins by reminiscing about the State Fair. "I'm very grateful to be here. We intend to campaign hard across the state of Iowa again...I think we're going to be up late on Election Night, my friends, and we're going to need your help."
I look up, about five minutes into McCain's address and see a steady stream of people walking out of the rally. They just came to see Palin apparently.
