Is McCain visiting Iowa again? This is a state that Obama has had locked up forever, and that he'll probably win by double digits. McCain isn't even seriously contesting it. Iowans don't even like McCain that much, which might be due to his avoiding the state like chicken pox during the 2000 and 2008 primaries, or maybe because back when he was flip-flopping on every issue to please the hard right he couldn't be bothered to become pro-ethanol. C'mon, John! In for a penny, in for a pound, no?
At what point is this going to become less of a presidential campaign and more of an opportunity for McCain to travel to fun places for a month? He could spend a week in Florida, do some events, and just lay on the beach. He could follow that up with a quick tip to picturesque New Hampshire, then he could head to California, visit San Diego and Orange County. California's probably about as competitive as Iowa these days.
