Obama in Pennsylvania

Obama has spent the last two days campaigning in Pennsylvania, sending out Hillary Clinton and other prominent female supporters to other swing states to counter the effects of Palin's speech the night before.

Today Obama visited a glass factory in PA, focusing on the economy:

"Today's jobs report is a reminder of what's at stake in this election," Obama said. "John McCain showed last night he is intent on continuing the economic policies that just this year have caused the American economy to lose 605,000 jobs....John McCain's answer is more of the same: $200 billion in tax cuts to big corporations and oil companies, and not one dime of tax relief to more than 100 million middle-class families."

Obama also heavily criticized the lack of mention of the econony in the Repulican National Convention.  Speaking of the convention, while Obama campaigned in Pennsylvania, McCain gave his acceptance speech on Thursday night, which has been largely viewed as bipartisan and much mroe focused on details than the other speakers.  Also of note Thursday was a speech from Cindy McCain, who usually only speaks a few words introducing her husband, and the official nomination of Governor Palin.
