Great local coverage of Obama's arrival and rally in Tampa NOW
http://media.myfoxtampabay.com/live/primarystream.html


I posted earlier, but it is worth another. Showed him getting off the plane, motorcade, crowd at rally, great comments by people in line. One young white man said he drove 7 hours from Pensacola, and that it was a minor thing, to see the man who had brought him to tears.

38. These people really just wanted to see Obama. That's what it seems like to me.
They are ready to get to work against McCain. They keep interrupting with chants of "YES WE CAN!" and "SI SE PUEDE!"

45. Drug companies and insurance companies spent over $1 billion on lobbyists
So that's why all the legislation favors them and not us.

47. Obama: 'The drug companies spent billions to stop health care reform from happening.'
'And we've been talking health care reform for decades.'


'Our energy policy is not written for you-- it's written for special interests.'


'Federal registered lobbyists do not fund my campaign. They will not run my White House.'


'10 years ago, McCain offered a bill to ban campaigns from using registered lobbyists. John McCain THEN would be very disappointed with John McCain NOW.'
