Obama to practice in Asheville


Barack Obama will practice for his next debate in Asheville.

The Asheville Citizen-Times reports that the Democratic presidential candidate will spend some time in Western North Carolina before his debate Tuesday in Nashville, Tenn.

Obama will spend "a couple of days" in the Asheville area, Obama spokesman Paul Cox told the paper.

"He needs to focus on his debate preparation, so we're not releasing the location," he said.
