Today in York, Pennsylvania, Barack spent a few minutes talking about the rhetoric from the Republican National Convention over the past three days. Here's an excerpt:
"You wouldn't know that this is such a critical election by watching the convention last night. I know we had our week and so, you know, the Republicans deserve theirs. But it's been amazing to me to watch. Over the last two nights, if you sit there and you watch it, you're hearing a lot about John McCain - and he's got a compelling biography as a POW. You're hearing an awful lot about me, most of which is not true. What you're not hearing is a lot about you."
On a side note: The Obama campaign also is reaching out to women through house parties, phone banks and online organizing. A campaign official said that on Women's Equality Day, which is commemorated annually on Aug. 26, female Obama supporters held nearly 200 events nationwide in an effort to recruit women.
