It's Town Hall Meeting Time!

Today both the Clinton and Obama campaigns announced upcoming town hall meetings. Obama's will take place tomorrow at the Austin Convention Center, while Hillary's sounds like more of a "virtual" town hall meeting - on TV the Monday before election day.

The Obama campaign says you must have tickets (which are free) to attend the town hall meeting tomorrow ~~night~~ morning, as seating will be limited. His meeting is set to focus on the economy.

Clinton's town hall meeting Monday night will be shown on Fox Sports Network Southwest (yes, you read that correctly), and she wants to hear from voters from all over the state. Where it will be filmed hasn't been announced, but it will stream live on her website as it shows live on TV.
