Obama to hold 160 “Unite for Change” parties in Missouri
On Saturday, the campaign for presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama is launching its organizing efforts in Missouri “with 160 Unite for Change house parties across the state.
“The events will bring together voters who supported Democratic candidates in the primary, but also independents and Republicans who are ready to turn the page on the failed policies of the past and commit to taking action this year,” the campaign said in a release.
The Missouri parties are among more than 4,000 slated to held Saturday nationwide.
Said Obama in a statement:
“One of the benefits of the long primary season is that we had an opportunity to campaign in every part of the country. And in all 50 states, people helped build an unprecedented grassroots organization that continues to grow to this day.
“This enthusiasm is about something bigger than any one candidate. It’s about our shared desire to change the way Washington does business. We are ready to move beyond the failed policies of George W. Bush and come together around common values that will lead us to a better future for all Americans. Through Unite for Change house meetings, friends and neighbors of various backgrounds will come together to organize and grow our grassroots movement for change.”


Dont come to my traditional household and throw one of your “Change” parties, Senator! We just happen to love our guns concealed, our taxes inappropriately low, our gays unmarried, and our occupations 100 years long. Keep talking circles Obama….
