McCain event plans in flux
By Matt Friedman
Category: President
Senator John McCain may not be in New Jersey tomorrow after all.
McCain was in New Jersey for a private fundraiser this afternoon, and was scheduled to hold a public, outdoor campaign stop tomorrow morning at Sandy Hook National Park. That even has been canceled due to rain.
McCain New Jersey Campaign Chairman Bill Baroni said that they’re in the process of trying to schedule an alternate event for tomorrow, or at least some time soon.
“We are certainly hopeful that Sen. McCain will campaign in New Jersey tomorrow, and often between now and November."

Quote of the Day
October 14, 2008
"They would never put me through. So this one time in September I called and said, 'Is Jon there?' And the lady says, 'Who is calling?' And I say "George.' She says, "George who?' I say, "George Norcross.' Right away I was talking to Jon Corzine. I asked him, 'How can you take a call and talk to George Norcross but not the average New Jersey citizen?'" -- West Deptford GOP candidate Michael Krawitz, who pretended to be South Jersey Democratic leader George Norcross in order to reach Gov. Jon Corzine.
