Word from the Obama camp came in about his canceled trip to NC:
Obama Visit to North Carolina Postponed
Chicago, ILSenator Barack Obamas visit to North Carolina today will be postponed to a future date due to a maintenance issue with Senator Obamas plane.
While en route to North Carolina, Senator Obamas plane was diverted to St. Louis for a maintenance check. The plane is remaining in St. Louis until the check is completed and as a result Senator Obama will not be able to hold his event today in Charlotte. Senator Obama will return to the Tar Heel state again soon and looks forward to a continuing discussion with hard-working North Carolina families about his agenda to strengthen our economy and bring the change America needs.
