Weekly Update


Barack Obama’s campaign masters the art of political surrogacy. This week it’s a fellow junior Senator from Rhode Island who’s helping the Presidential hopeful in the now “too close to call” New Hampshire.

Democratic U.S. Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse killed to birds with one stone during his visit to Plymouth State University; get out and vote combined with an update the plight of whales and other marine mammals.

With little doubt that Rhode Island would again vote Democratic blue rather than Republican red on Nov. 4, Whitehouse said he came north to the Granite State to campaign for Obama, adding "it's exciting to be here in a real battleground state."


Sen. McCain has been attempting to secure a foothold for the Republicans and has bee popular in this state. However, things are not going well, recent polling suggest a steady increase for Obama. Every indication, the state has been slipping into the Democratic column. John Sununu, the Republican senator, is a top target in November.
