Candidate Schedules

I've been interested to follow the candidate schedules on the right of the TPM page.  Does anyone notice that Obama seems to be doing only one or two events a day?  Hillary seems like she's putting in twice as many appearances, and of course, when you factor in Bill and Chelsea, that's a lot more contact time.

Can anyone explain (away) what looks like a softer schedule?  Is Obama doing lots of small group sessions and factory visits that don't register on the TPM board?  Is he earnestly developing a new stump speech or policy proposal?

I think he's on a mini vacation for a few days. But typically he does three or four events a day.

Yes. If anything he shows he has his priorities straight - his kids before his ego.

I can never find their schedules on here when I'm looking for them. I only ever find them accidently. Can you direct me?

In any event, I know that on Obama's site he doesn't not always have all the events listed - generally only the ones that are open to the public.

The "Calendar" is always on the Election Central tab, on the right side of the page.
