It was at 8:00 AM down at the Littleton VFW hall. It's warmed up here, and the snow is melting off the parking lots. Bunch of people were there, to hear, not McCain himself, but a bunch of old Hanoi Hilton comrades, and a US Congressman from Rhode Island. McCain himself was doing the more populous southern NH, and sending bunches of supporters out to the vote shy northwoods. It was a pep rally sort of affair, everyone was wearing stick on McCain badges, and the speakers quickly figured out that they didn't have to preach to the choir. After a couple of hours of schmoozing with neighbors, drinking Dunkin Donuts coffee, and listening to get-out-the-vote type speeches, the affair wound down and we all drove home. The McCain guys re boarded their bus and set off for their next stop. According to one of 'em, they planned to drive 385 miles today. Better them than me.
Tomorrow will tell, but McCain may do very well indeed.
