Monday Morning Open Thread

Good morning.

The President is heading to Rhode Island today. First, he's doing an event on small business and the economy at the American Cord & Webbing in Woonsocket. Then, he's heading to Providence to do two events for the DCCC. There's an open seat in Rhode Island and the Democrat is the gay mayor of Providence, David Cicilline. There's also a three-way race for Governor in Rhode Island. According to the Providence Journal:

President Obama will not endorse the Democratic candidate for governor, Frank T. Caprio, when he comes to Rhode Island to support other Democratic candidates, the White House said Sunday.
The independent is Lincoln Chafee.

The Veep is heading to Florida. He's the keynote speaker at the conference of the International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP). Back in the 90s, when I worked in gun control, IACP was our best ally. The NRA hated them. That was classic how the NRA loathed law enforcement.

Biden is doing two political events for two of the best progressive candidates today. While in Florida, he's campaigning for Alan Grayson. Then, he's heading to New Hampshire to Annie Kuster. Biden's office wants us to know "This will be the Vice President’s 100th event for 2010 candidates." Okay.

Eight days left.
