Pennsylvania
NYC to Philly Voter Registration Event
It is time to gear up for November with some serious voter registration, Effort now can win big in November. There are already voter reg efforts in nearby states. This comes from someone at Independent Neighborhood Democrats:
Dear Friends,
I'm excited to announce that our first voter registration trip to Philadelphia will take place Saturday, July 5th. I'm very pleased that we are partnering with Pennsylvania ACORN. Upon arrival in Philadelphia, we will report to their office for a brief training session, after which we will be dispatched to the streets crawling with unregistered voters eager for our assistance.
Pennsylvania has been a pivotal swing state over the last several presidential election cycles. Indeed, Republican strategists have made no secret that they view Pennsylvania as a key target in 2008. We must make sure that Pennsylvania is firmly in the Obama column. At stake is not only the White House, but most certainly the Supreme Court, where 88 year old John Paul Stevens holds the deciding vote on issues such as a woman's right to choose, Affirmative Action, right to trial, and a host of other civil liberties.

Bruce Springsteen, Working Class Icon, Endorses Barack Obama
The Boss weighs in on this year's presidential election. You think his timing, right before the Pennsylvania primary, is deliberate? Could his endorsement swing some of those blue collar votes? I bet lots of those laid off Rust Belt workers blasted Born to Run in their day.

You just don't get more American than Bruce Springsteen. America's working class icon and true blue American legend is endorsing Barack Obama. Bruce's letter says it all:
LIke most of you, I've been following the campaign and I have now seen and heard enough to know where I stand. Senator Obama, in my view, is head and shoulders above the rest.
