If you're a Missouri voter you'll want to read this. In my talks today with a McCain communications director I learned that there are some key steps they plan on taking to get you to pick him in November. To make it easier on you and me I'll list them below.

1. personal appearances
2. ground campaign
3. phone banks
4. ???? mystery

Ok, so what does mystery mean? Well when I asked today I was told they could not tell me. So we (the media) like yourselves will have to wait and see what they have planned for the Show-me-state. I can tell you that I was specifically told McCain and Palin will be in our area "several" times before the election to prove just how much they want to win the state.

If you take a step back and look at what's going on, it all makes sense... they want to add enthusiasm to their campaign and giving us bits of information at a time keeps our attention.

Do you have any thoughts on what they have planned???
