McDaughter visits Maine

Sen. John McCain's daughter, Meghan McCain, is barnstorming the 2nd Congressional District today, with stops in Orono, Bangor and Auburn.

According to the McCain-Palin campaign, the Republican presidential nominee's daughter will start at Pat's Pizza in Orono at half past noon, for lunch (as a longtime fan and patron of Pat's in Orono, I recommend the pineapple and pepperoni pizza with fries....).

Next, she's got a "Meet and Greet" at 1:50 p.m. at the camp's Bangor Victory Center at 543 Broadway.

Finally, she's got a 5 p.m. meet and greet at Gritty McDuff's in Auburn at 68 Main St. (I recommend Gritty's homemade chips ...)

Meanwhile, supporters of Democrat Barack Obama are fighting back with a news conference of their own, lambasting a so-called "Robocall" from the McCain campaign that targets Obama's connection with a former radical involved in bombings in the U.S. capital.
