Today on the presidential campaign trail
Palin sounds optimistic in Ohio
LAKEWOOD, Ohio (AP) — Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin told a boisterous crowd in a Democratic suburb of Cleveland Monday that "victory is coming."
The Alaska governor opened a grueling final day of the presidential campaign with an upbeat rally in Lakewood, the biggest Democratic stronghold in Ohio, a swing state whose 20 electoral votes are crucial to Republican John McCain's campaign.
Polls show Ohio is too close to call with Democrat Barack Obama carrying a slight lead or running neck and neck with McCain.
Although Obama-Biden signs far outnumber those for McCain-Palin in Lakewood, Palin drew a noisy crowd that waved red pompoms during her appearance at the bandstand in Lakewood Park.
"This is the right place to be for us to kick off this final day of campaigning," Palin said. "You can just feel it here in Ohio. Victory is coming. We can do this; we can win Ohio."

Comment: "josemarti": What has denigrated your "dignity" and "self respect" about Obama in this campaign?
Is it that McCain has conducted the biggest lie, smear, innuendo and hate propaganda campaign in the history of American politics?
