| Obviously Hillary is looking to try and blow out Barack Obama in West Virginia with only 5 days to go until our primary on May 13th. Unfortunately the Hillary Website has very poor information as to where appearances will take place for Bill Clinton. I originally heard that he was going to be at the Mercer County Courthouse in Princeton at 8:00pm tomorrow night. I was told that by the Judge whose Courtroom they were going to use (not a good location). I called the Clinton campaign headquarters in Charleston and after a few minutes wait learned that he will be at Concord University in Athens at 8:00pm. I got a robo-call about 7:15 announcing this as well. Pretty poor planning and press. It sounds like the events listed below were planned at the last minute after the results came in from North Carolina and Indiana. Update: The following email was posted by Clem earlier... I missed it so sorry for the repeat.
