Obama solidifies home base
June 15, 2008 2:24 pm American PoliticsObama’s latest campaign statements are of acute interest where he states:
“Barack Obama is warning supporters that the general election fight between him and John McCain may get ugly, but the Illinois senator is vowing not to back down.‘If they bring a knife to the fight, we bring a gun,’ Obama said at a fundraiser in Philadelphia Friday, according to pool reports.”
Have the latest polling shown that he is in trouble in the inner cities, which has that led him to cater to his base and issue statements that will ingratiate him to them? He is certainly speaking their language and this is the kind of talk that they can personally relate to.
