Weather slows Hillary, Obama campaigns
MADISON, Wis. (AP) -- A snow and ice storm has slowed Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama as they campaign in Wisconsin.
Clinton was scheduled to appear at a town hall meeting in DePere at 1 p.m. But her Wisconsin campaign spokeswoman, Carly Lindauer, says the event has been postponed until Monday morning.
Lindauer says it's too risky to travel to DePere and the campaign doesn't want people going out in the storm to get to campus.
Obama was scheduled to appear his own town hall meeting in Kaukauna at 3 p.m. That's been canceled due to weather.

By John Whitesides and Caren Bohan Sat Feb 16, 10:47 PM ET
MILWAUKEE (Reuters) - Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton traded fresh attacks and touted their economic leadership on Saturday as they took their Democratic presidential duel to Wisconsin.
………
Clinton made her first campaign appearance in Wisconsin and promptly announced she would cut her state campaign schedule by a full day and leave on Monday, raising questions about her confidence in her chances in Tuesday's primary.
Her husband, former President Bill Clinton, has been in the state and her daughter, Chelsea, will stay on to campaign.
"We're going to be here through Monday, and given the press of all the events that are going on -- Chelsea will be back in the state, Bill obviously was here. We have great surrogates," Clinton
Yes, We Will!

http://www.jsonline.com/watch/?watch=1&date=2/17/2008&id=35742 Obama event in Kaukauna canceled
Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama has cancelled a planned appearance at Kaukauna High School this afternoon, his campaign announced. Severe weather in the Fox Valley area led the State Patrol to advise motorists to stay off the roads in the area and it was uncertain whether Obama's plane could fly in for the event. Kaukauna is between Appleton and Green Bay.
Plans remain in place for Monday, when Obama is scheduled to attend a rally in Beloit and his wife, Michelle, is planning to campaign in Milwaukee, Madison and LaCrosse.
Clinton Green Bay event postponed
Democrat Hillary Rodham Clinton was forced to postpone her first stop today outside Green Bay due the winter storm that was causing havoc with campaign schedules two days before the Wisconsin Primary.
Clinton planned to re-schedule the event for tomorrow morning.
The revised schedule calls for the same location - Schuldes Sports Center at St. Norbert's College in De Pere - but tomorrow morning instead of today. Doors will open at 8 a.m., the campaign said.
Clinton aides said the change was made due to safety concerns involving both the campaign flying into the Green Bay area and people in the area getting to the event.
Clinton, who held a fundraiser this morning at the Pfister Hotel, still has events scheduled for later today in Wausau and Madison.
