Senator John Kerry will join Senator Ted Kennedy, Governor Deval Patrick and Barack tonight in Boston... Check out his Daily Kos diary from today...
Barack, Ted Kennedy, Gov. Deval Patrick and I will all be at an event in Boston at 8 tonight, and I’m sure the room will be packed. If you’re in Boston, come on by, but if you’re not, you can watch it on barackobama.com; they’ll stream it live from the hall (again, at 8 pm tonight). It’ll be the final event before Super Tuesday, so don’t miss it. And tell your friends and family about it, as well. We want to make sure as many people get a chance to see Barack speak before the vote on Super Tuesday.
I’m proud to be a part of this fight. I had no illusions when I endorsed Barack; he had just lost New Hampshire, and Hillary Clinton had a substantial national lead and in all the big states. But I believed in Barack’s candidacy. I’ve served with him on the Foreign Relations Committee, I’ve seen how he works and the way he listens. I know this guy. He’s a special kind of leader, a rare leader, a once in a generation talent. And I know this is his moment. He has gifts, and one of those gifts – wisdom – is rare in any field, as Oprah said I thought very powerfully just yesterday in California.
Now the campaign has tightened considerably. The polls show a tight race all over the country, an amazing turnaround for Barack’s campaign. He now has the momentum, and it shows no sign of stopping, if people like you - much more than people like me - keep it growing. That’s the bottom line. One of my mentors Gary Hart once told me that endorsements matter not in the least – and he told me that even as he was endorsing me! But Gary was and is right – what matters is that I’m just one of hundreds of thousands of people who are putting serious time and effort into this campaign.
If you can spare some time and haven’t volunteered, you can work for the Obama campaign right from your home. Go to http://action.barackobama.com/... and you can take part in what could be the largest phonebank in history - a virtual phonebank going on all the time – as campaign supporters from all over call undecided voters to help persuade them, or call Obama supporters to help get-out-the-vote. It makes a big difference, and it’s an incredible feeling being part of this campaign.
And, of course, get out and vote yourself tomorrow if you are in a state holding a primary or a caucus. You can find your polling or caucus location by going here: http://action.barackobama.com/...
And, don’t forget, take some time out to watch Barack’s final event before Super Tuesday on live streaming video tonight. Just go to the homepage at http://www.barackobama.com starting at 8 pm; the stream will be front and center.
