Despite Democratic attempts to claim Wisconsin as a safe state, President Obama is spending both Thursday and Saturday in the state – in Green Bay and Milwaukee, respectively — to try to shore up a state he won by a whopping 14 points in 2008. Reports earlier today indicated that Obama was losing early voting in the state; Democratic Mayor of Denver Michael Hancock told Milwaukee yesterday that “if the election was held today, President Obama would lose the state of Wisconsin because where his base is, we have not turned out the vote early.”
Clearly Obama is worried, too.
