Obama Campaign: We'll have Staff in all 50 States

[ChrisFromNJ]

Spending money in all 50 states is the definition of absurd. It is a waste of money and it will continue to be a waste of money. I admire the attempts of Obama's campaign to do better in traditionally Republican states, but it is pie in the sky wishful thinking that putting staffers in all 50 states will do anything more than putting staffers in 10 select swing states couldn't do.

Bush's campaign did the same thing in 2000. They spent unneeded money in blue states like California and New Jersey early in the campaign. It was money well wasted. The Bush 2000 campaign came to their senses fairly quickly. Let's hope the Obama 2008 campaign comes to their senses soon.
