Cheney to Hawaii

Vice President Cheney going to Hawaii is part of the last-minute game. A few polls have shown Bush tied or within reach of Kerry. By having Cheney go to the island state he may force Kerry Edwards to pump some cash into ads there. The only thing better would be Cheney's visit scaring Kerry or Edwards enough to visit themselves. I give 10-1 odds Bush nabs Hawaii, but precious Kerry Edwards money or time may get drained from better targets like Iowa, Ohio, or Wisconsin.

There could still be a Bush Beach Bash, but I don't want to see either Dick or Lynne in swimwear.
