From NBC/NJ's Adam Aigner-Treworgy
ARLINGTON, Va. -- After doing some debate prep and satellite interviews at his campaign headquarters for most of the afternoon,
McCain headed downstairs to his Virginia Victory offices to rally a group of volunteers who had been making phone calls on his behalf.
He referenced recent poll numbers and the state of the race in Virginia before telling his supporters that this news should only make them want to work harder.
Quote:
"After I whip his you know what in this debate, we're going to be going out 24/7," McCain said of his upcoming debate with Obama, but seeming to consider recent criticism that his words have been too inflammatory, he quickly told supporters to be respectful.
"I wanna emphasize again, I respect Sen. Obama," McCain said. "We will conduct a respectful race and we will make sure that everybody else does too," but he also reiterated that there are "stark differences" between the two candidates.

McCain spoke of his event in Virginia tomorrow, his third campaign event in the state during the general election, and said that this is going to be a state where his campaign will have to work hard, along with states like Ohio, Colorado, New Mexico, Nevada, and Pennsylvania.
ETA: I give John points... without the fun Palin interviews, he's keeping the race interesting!!
