Reporting in from bluest-of-the-blue Montclair, NJ, where about half the town (including us) remains without power. Our township council just met to discuss progress in cleaning up from Hurricane Sandy, including school openings and voting. More below the squiggle...

This is really more of a question than a diary, but I have a feeling I may not be the only one with a similar question, and I would have no idea where to put it as a comment.

I am longing to take my two kids to an Obama rally before the election. I'll have to make somewhat advance plans, since a) they're small kids and we move a bit more slowly, and b) he ain't coming to New Jersey, so we'll be venturing to PA.

So my question is: is there any source for advance word on when and where the candidates will be? I keep hearing about these things too late!

Is this less important than I think it is, or is it just that what with all the McCain-parachuting-into-occupied-Washington hoohah, it's lost in the shuffle?

According to WaPo, Sarah Palin, Our Lady of Maverickdom and All Things Reform, accepted more than $25,000 in gifts during the first 20 months of her term as governor.

There has been an ocean of discussion about how we reach out to the good-hearted, moderate religious people of America and get them to vote Democratic. I think any attempt to reach the extreme fundamentalist voters--those of the Operation Rescue, Fred Phelps, Jerry Falwell ilk--is extremely misguided, but I do think that many moderate churches are reachable. Part of how we reach them involves using the right language.

Don't know if a link to this has been posted yet, and I honestly have no idea if it's legit or where it happened (if I dug deeper into the journal I could probably find that bit out)--but this was posted on another site I frequent, and it blew me away: http://www.livejournal.com/users/hilltop/1085853.html

It's a must read. Really. I may just want it to be true, but it reads like it's for real. And it's pretty impressive.

Via Froomkin at the WaPo comes the latest assault on free expression at a Bush-Cheney rally. His column's here: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/politics/administration/whbriefing/, but the link to the Bend (OR) Bugle story seems broken.

Here's a direct link to the Bugle:

Part of the AP report: "Three Medford school teachers were threatened with arrest and escorted from the event after they showed up wearing T-shirts with the slogan 'Protect our civil liberties.' All three said they applied for and received valid tickets from Republican headquarters in Medford.

Later on, the AP story notes: "Thursday's actions in Oregon set a new standard even for Bush/Cheney - removing and threatening with arrest citizens who in no way disrupt an event and wear clothing that expresses non-disruptive party-neutral viewpoints such as 'Protect Our Civil Liberties.'"
