Florida -- The Obama Strategy

Obama's Florida operations are mind boggling. Let's take a look.

• The Obama campaign had more than 60 field offices and 100,000 volunteers in Florida at the beginning of the month.
• Obama has been spending more than $5 million per week on a massive TV ad campaign
• Top surrogates including Hillary and Bill Clinton, and Al and Tipper Gore have been dispatched to the state.
• "Ground game guru" Steve Hildrebrand and Paul Tewes, "who won Iowa for Obama," will be managing the campaign's ground game and GOTV operations in the state.

And the results thus far are encouraging for the campaign.

About 38% of the total number of voters in 2004 have already voted, with a few more days of early voting remaining. Among these voters, Democrats lead Republicans 46% to 38%.
