Former President Bill Clinton is in town, campaigning for President Obama. At 5:30 pm, he held a campaign rally in Adams County, near Denver. At 7:30 pm, he will be at Denver's Manual High School.

On Thursday, President Obama will campaign in Boulder.

Sounds like a "Get Out the Vote" effort, since Denver, Boulder and Adams County are largely Democratic.

In Mitt Romney news, I just muted the TV. The same ad has come on twice in 15 minutes: an elderly woman talking about how Mitt gave the eulogy at her 14 year old son's funeral -- more than 30 years ago. That qualifies him to be President? It's sickening to see those making his campaign ads (in this case Crossroads) use this elderly woman and exploit her son's death. Is there anything Mitt Romney won't try and capitalize on? Mitt Romney: Capitalize and Privatize.

    but he also endorsed Joe Miklosi in his bid to unseat Mike Coffman.  

    The first campaign Democratic state Rep. Joe Miklosi worked on was then-Arkansas Gov. Bill Clinton's bid for the presidency in 1992.

    Fast-forward 20 years to Tuesday, when Miklosi met briefly with Clinton in a hallway at Adams City High School, accepting the former president's endorsement of his candidacy for Colorado's 6th Congressional District.

    I hope it makes a difference in the race.

    They're training 'incognito poll watchers' and some of what they're doing is legally questionable, to say the least.

    Here's a local report -- and a great read (none / 0) (#4)

    The local report is here, and it links to an account not to be missed by a liberal blogger who went incognito to one of the training sessions.

    This corruption could matter (as I've been warning -- and I'm worried more about other voter-suppression tactics put in place by Walker), as Wisconsin must be up for grabs in the candidates' internals.  Ann Romney and Ryan were in Wisconsin again today, and some pol or other is coming every day -- Bill Clinton, Biden back again, too, both for several stops, and Mitt Romney is back again on Monday for a last-minute rally.

    And she's a lawyer too! Or, maybe I should say, she's a "lawyer" too. But isn't that blogpost something that should be forwarded posthaste to one or more of the Wisconsin news organizations?
