Pennsylvania governor Ed Rendell, a Democrat, is nervous about the state and has asked Barack Obama and Joe Biden to return to the state and campaign. The McCain campaign is making a hard push for the state, and a loss in PA would make an Obama victory very difficult.

It's readily obvious how in the past few days McCain has been very publicly working in congress while Obama has taken the more subtle route. We need to show that McCain's reckless tactic of suspending his campaign and dancing around Washington may be what a good Senator does, but Obama is showing the characteristics of what a great president does.

The man who collects my trash is informed, serious about the election AND for Obama. This is unusual in my area.
The points for Obama to stress to win this constituency are:
1) End the war, which will keep $ at home.
2) Keep jobs and industry in the USA, which will help American workforce

This campaign strategy is not your typical political kiss the baby and smile style but more in your face truth style campaigning... that pushes the Barack Obama campaign to get closer to America than any other candidate has ever done.

It is time for Senator Obama to speak directly to Americans in the way that the late, great Bernie Mac did. His direct to the camera monologues would be an effective way to address the lies of the McCain/Bush Palin campaign about Obama's tax plan and established position on Iraq and Afghanistan. There is a window to start this kind of dialogue before the debates and early voting begin.
