Obama lays out campaign plans

| | Comments (0) |

Sen. Barack Obama, on MSNBC, after winning his 26th state in the presidential primary, said he will continue his campaign theme of offering change in how the nation is run.
As he and Clinton now turn their attention to Pennsylvania, Obama said he will try to cut into Clinton's lead by his message "that I will be fighting for them.
"I think what I tell them is President Clinton deserves credit, but the trend of growing inequatity, of jobs being shipped overseas...that many of those thrends started before Georg Bush took office.
But, we are so paralyzed with the bitter partisanship and the influence of special interests, that their voices are not being heard. We want to restore the idea that Washington is fighting for working families."
Obama also said he is ready to be commander in chief, based on the judgment he has show in the past and criticized the Clinton television commercial on readiness as an attempt to appeal to public fears.
As for a potential Florida revote, Obama said he will abide by the rules established by the Democratic Party.
