Obama Delivers Closing Arguments Speech In Ohio

After decades of broken politics in Washington, eight years of failed policies from George Bush, and twenty-one months of a campaign that hastaken us from the rocky coast of Maine to the sunshine of California, we areone week away from change in America.

In one week, you can turn the page on policies that have put the greed and irresponsibility of Wall Street before the hard work and sacrifice of folks on Main Street.

In one week, you can choose policies that invest in ourmiddle-class, create new jobs, and grow this economy from the bottom-up so that everyone has a chance to succeed; from the CEO to the secretary and the janitor; from the factory owner to the men and women who work on its floor.

In one week, you can put an end to the politics that woulddivide a nation just to win an election; that tries to pit region against region, city against town, Republican against Democrat; that asks us to fear at a time when we need hope.

In one week, at this defining moment in history, you can give this country the change we need.

Very moving... Obama 08!

[RememberToday4ever]

Im from London, England, and I hope to God America makes the right decision and votes for Obama, because if America goes into a deep and long recession the whole World goes into a deep and long recession. I believe Obama will get America back on its feet. John McCain = George Bush, and President Sarah Palin is a frightening thought

[rianpop]

wow, Obama=fail

[astrolifter]

@humanist7117 He's also a cocksucker.

[sidesjeremy]

And now look where we are. Irriversable deficit and a still rising un employment percentage. It's been a year and and he has tripled the bullshit we were in before. He said all those things just to get voted in and now our country is doomed. I see no change. Just another horrible president.

[bobste4lifektm]

obama is making himself look good but he is doing everything that is bad for this country

[Txman1996]

Yeah, especially if you are a socialist or failure.

[Txman1996]

Funny, in 6 months we won't have any more private industry. Some, if not all, will be government owned. And, we all can see what a great job the government does! Just think, government healthcare is just around the corner. If there was a time to get cancer, it would probably be now. Speaking of a cancer...

[007HaterGuyAgain]

Dud can work a crowd.

[Hockeytown0001]

So much for Hope and Change, Eh libs?

[jbone1122]

hella change! 10 days into his presidency and he's bombing Pakistan! Woohoo!

More war in the Middle East!

I'm sorry Mr. Obama, but you are dead wrong about Bush's economic policies. They have worked and they have succeeded.....for the rich. You know why? Because they were implemented solely for that purpose.

Bush's presidency has been a success for a small group of people. So if you want to make an accurate speech, tell it like it is.

I respect you, but don't back down because you might face political backlash, Bush is greedy and you needed to call him out on that.
