Final Stretch of the Campaign

Perhaps the most important election of the century is coming on Tuesday, but the work is not over for our candidates. Senators Obama and McCain are still on the campaign trail trying to urge both supporters and undecided voters to get out and vote for them. The candidates are really concerned with the swing states so that they can get those votes. The one thing that really surprised me is that Obama is campaigning pretty hard in Arizona because that is Senator McCain's home state. This is surprising because you would think that McCain has Arizona pretty solid but Obama is going in there saying that he has a chance to win this state. Even though it is Sunday, this election is far from over and it will be interesting to see what these candidates do from today all the way up to the election day.
