On Wednesday night, Barack Obama made a clear and compelling case for change during the 26th and final debate of his campaign for president. John McCain only offered angry, negative attacks. Throughout the course of the evening, Barack offered specific plans to rebuild the middle class while John McCain couldn’t name a single way that his economic policies would be any different than those of George W. Bush.
After the debate, Barack Obama and Joe Biden urged their supporters to join the biggest get out the vote operation in history, and work to make sure that every voter has their voice heard. John McCain and Sarah Palin, meanwhile, unleashed another wave of dishonorable, dishonest attacks in their continued effort to distract voters from the real issues facing American families.
Time is running out. McCain’s erratic response to the economic crisis and his angry political attacks raise serious questions about whether he is ready to lead our economy. Wednesday was his last chance for a game-changer and he didn’t get it done.
The debates are now over and there are less than three weeks left until Election Day. We’ll continue to take our message of change directly to the people of Minnesota, and next week we’ll have a special guest to help us out: Sen. Hillary Clinton will visit the Iron Range on Tuesday, October 21, to talk about her trust in Barack’s steady leadership and ability to turn around our economic crisis.
Now, the high-profile campaign surrogates and television ads are nice, but the way elections are won in Minnesota is through direct voter contact. That is why we are building the largest grassroots campaign this state has ever seen, and why we need you, your friends, family and neighbors to sign up to volunteer for the campaign.
