Obama seems to be losing ground. It sounds like his campaign is 
unorganized...Biden is saying things that don't agree with the official 
campaign positions. They had a disagreement about AIG; Biden said one 
thing, Obama said another. Obama is for clean coal plants, Biden is 
against them. Environmental issues interest me, but it's hard to know 
what their position is:

Ron Paul's position on things is clear and I agree with him; I really 
wish he'd either encourage people to write him in, or give his support 
to ONE candidate...he's splitting up all the 'fringe' voters.

> GREEN BAY, Wis. — Hoping to shore up support in his suddenly undependable backyard, Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama flew here Monday to talk about how he’d handle economic crises as president.
> Recent polls have shown that Wisconsin — once pretty solidly in Obama’s column — is now a statistical dead heat between Obama and Republican John McCain.

> “You all know that you hold this election in your hands,” Sen. Russ Feingold, a Democrat who said he worked on ethics legislation with Obama, told a crowd of about 6,000 cheering Obama fans in the arena next to Lambeau Field. “We just barely won this state for Al Gore in 2000 and we just barely won this state for John Kerry in 2004.”

> The numbers in Wisconsin and Minnesota are getting close enough that the Obama campaign closed its 11 campaign offices in North Dakota and moved the 50 staffers there to these two states.
> Just a week ago, John McCain and his vice-presidential nominee Sarah Palin — who can bring out crowds the way Obama can — appeared in this same stadium, Resch Center, to a crowd of 10,000 fans. There were an uncharacteristic amount of empty orange seats for Obama’s rally.
