UPDATE: Okay, sorry about the ruckus, it looks like Barack Obama is NOT scheduled to appear in person in the Cleveland area on the 14th. The notice I received is emblazoned with the words "Senator Barack Obama, Democratic Presidential Candidate, Campaign Rally," leading to my mistake. I did attempt to contact the sponsor of the event to confirm before posting, but didn't get through. 2nd UPDATE: I see that Tim noted my post and looked into the matter. He was also told that Obama isn't scheduled to appear on the 14th .... yet. By the way, I totally disagree with him that an 11th District Caucus rally for Obama with Rep. Stephanie Tubbs Jones but without Obama himself isn't worth attending. Tubbs Jones was Clinton's national campaign co-chair, so for her to put on a rally for Obama is a big deal, and what she has to say there will be significant. I just received a notice that the next meeting of the 11th Congressional District Caucus on Monday, July 14th will feature a rally for Sen. Barack Obama, as well as statewide, county, and local candidates: Monday, July 14, 2008 The Civic & Conference Center Start: 7:00 pm
