The scene around the high school was frenetic. People sold Obama shirts and
buttons and beverage coolers and volunteers wandered the grounds doing nothing
but telling visitors to "go this way" and "don't go there, go here."

Later, Clinton met with Obama in Florida and said much of the same things he
said in Pennsylvania. Then Obama, whose prime-time TV special aired earlier,
said much of what he has been saying all week.

With less than a week left before Election Day, it seemed all wounds from the
hectic and controversial primary season had been healed, with President
Clinton smiling and waving and sounding supportive.

"I betchya he votes for McCain, though," said a visitor to the high school in
Pennsylvania after Clinton departed. "He don't want Obama to win. He never
did. Besides, he must think that Sarah Palin is pretty and hot."
