I've been trying to figure out why on earth Joe Biden and Hillary Clinton would make an appearance in Scranton, given how safe Pennsylvania looks for Barack Obama. Seeing Paul Kanjorski behind might be part of the explanation.
Speaking of which, John McCain and Sarah Palin are making separate stops in the state, for reasons passing understanding. Since the convention, McCain has made a total of sixteen appearances in Kerry states, and Palin has an three additional solo rallies on offense. That's time that could have been spent matching Obama's appearances in Colorado, Nevada, Florida, Virginia, and Ohio, where McCain really needs to hunker down.
