VIDEO: Obama Stumps for McCaskill
“The American people are not as divided as their politics would indicate,” Senator Barack Obama told a packed house of Claire McCaskill supporters in St. Louis yesterday.
Obama, who has been jetting across the country to lend some of his popularity to Democrats in close races, spoke yesterday at the World’s Fair Pavilion in Forest Park to more than 1,000 people who hope that come Wednesday morning, the Democrats will have taken control of the U.S. Senate and House.
For there to be a change of power in the Senate tomorrow, Democrats will have to pick up six seats. In the House, the number is 15.
