McCain/Palin didn't give one speech in the city. The spoke in the suburbs and smaller towns but not the largest city in the state. Even they seem to understand they had little chance of winning in the city. This was clearly evident here in Milwaukee, WI. McCain/Palin didn’t give one speech in the city.
