Political bits II
Obama in St. Louis drew 100,000. McCain today, 2,000. (He better hope those Missouri rurals love him.)
(AP) McCain had $47 million in the bank at the start of October.
(Politico) Salter on a McCain conference call says the McCain/RNC will end October having raised $150 million. (Do I believe that?)
(WSJ) The Google CEO will endorse and campaign with Obama this week.
Ambinder has an interesting post about the success of the Obama folks in framing the grand narratives. (Change vs. experience. Obama's steady temperament.)
Two interesting posts on polling, samples, etc. WSJ and PPP.
(Politico) After blasting Russia over and over, the McCain campaign sends a $5,000 fundraising letter to the head of the Russian UN mission.
And, Quote of the day. Obama speaking on the stump about the robocalls, "You really have to work hard to violate Governor Palin's standards on negative campaigning."

If that really were true, they would be devoting more than $1.5M to "must-win" PA and pushing a lot harder in FL.
Either way, McCain is on public financing, so they could just be adding the RNC totals to his $84M election season figure.

Right.
I don't know what the numbers are, but it appears they're being so drastically outspent.
(Thought. Reports of McCain paying cavassers in Florida. Maybe they're having to put alot of money into paid "volunteers?")
