Doles to campaign together Friday


U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Dole and her husband Bob will campaign together Friday.

The two will appear at a rally hosted by the Wake County McCain-Palin Committee and Wake County Veterans for McCain at the Franklin-Sloan post of the Veterans of Foreign Wars in Cary at 5:30 p.m. 

It is an unusual joint appearance for the couple, who have been campaigning separately for her re-election in November. 

The event is open to the public.

David,

Please do not distort what you thought you heard on TV.
If we add Georgia and the Ukraine to NATO, we would be required to come to their aid militarily by treaty. Would you not honor a treaty you signed?

Is this also her first public appearance since the AgFirst?

I see no events calendar on her webpage and she no mentions of public appearances anywhere online. Is she hiding from the voters or does she think that they need not talk to her, since she is the Incumbent.

Here's hoping World War II veteran Bob Dole can cool down the new Republican vice presidential candidate's speculation about going to war with Russia.

Just think, Sen. John McCain could have tapped a woman of Elizabeth Dole's experience and ability to take the No. 2 spot on the GOP ticket, and people wouldn't have to start concerning themselves with Alaskan nationalism and ill-considered talk of a border war with Russia.
