Alaska Gov. Sean Parnell (R) steered clear of President Obama's visit to his state today. Obama stopped off at Elemendorf Air Force Base near Anchorage on his way to his tour of Asia that starts tomorrow.
Obama was greeted at the base by hundreds of cheering airmen as well as Alaska's Lt. Gov., Craig Cambell (R), and the state's junior U.S. Senator, Mark Begich (D). But Parnell said he was too busy to make an appearance.
