Palin To Campaign In Oklahoma?

Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin may be scheduled for a "whistle stop" visit to Oklahoma during the campaign, sources in the McCain-Palin campaign say.

Palin's campaign schedule is not set and even when it is, it will be subject to change, a source says, but Oklahoma is on the list of western and southern states where Palin's pro-gun rights, anti-abortion and overall conservative positions could help the ticket, the source says.

It is unlikely McCain himself will visit the state, the source says.

Meanwhile, it also seems unlikely that Barack Obama will visit the state even though Governor Brad Henry and University of Oklahoma President David Boren have urged him to do so.
