Reports of McCain's coming demise in key states keep coming.

Politickerpa.com:

A week after PolitickerPA.com reported that Republicans were
increasingly concerned about John McCain's chances of winning Pennsylvania, a growing number of reports are adding to the sense of despair in GOP circles.
With polls almost universally turning in favor of Barack Obama, some Republicans are all but conceding that McCain can't capture the state's 21 electoral votes,
The Inquirer reports.

The Assocated Press reports that McCain is losing the critical support of working-class white voters.

Student volunteers drive to Indiana, work to deliver swing state to Obama
In an effort to ensure Midwestern swing states vote for their respective candidates, student groups are spending their weekends traveling across state lines to campaign.

The most active traveling group on campus is Students for Barack Obama, which has spent nearly every Saturday since the beginning of the academic year traveling to Indiana to knock on doors and work phone banks for the Obama campaign.

Although no Republican University organizations have made a trip across the Illinois border, College Republicans president and sophomore in FAA Bobby McNeily said his group is also planning to travel to Indiana to campaign for Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz.

He added that while their plans have yet to be finalized, College Republicans would like to make more than one trip if time and resources permit.

"We're a grassroots organization on campus, so of course we want to help out nationally," McNeily said.
