Montanans Wait For Obama

Don McLarty of the organization called Montanans for Single Payer, carries a sign near Gallatin Field Airport in Belgrade, Mont., this morning, where a town hall meeting with President Barack Obama will be taking place. Perhaps no region of the country better illustrates Obama’s political vulnerabilities than the mountain West. He’s hoping to ease some of those concerns in a Western swing blending town hall appearances and visits to national parks beginning today. (AP Photo/Jae C. Hong)
