LEFT: Piper Palin whispers to her mom, Gov. Sarah Palin, at a rally Oct. 20 at
the Budweiser Events Center in Loveland. The GOP ticket, led by Sen. John McCain, has launched
a nation-wide defensive strategy to keep key
states — and electoral votes — George Bush won in 2004.
BELOW: Sen. Joe Biden makes his entrance at a rally Oct. 21 in Commerce City.
The Democratic ticket is leading in most national polls by at least 5 percent.
Colorado is still a key “toss-up” state in this election but in the last week has shown
national polls a leaning toward Sens. Obama and Biden.
