Hillary to Campaign for Obama Friday in Colorado

By Jeralyn

John McCain will campaign in Colorado Friday.

This just in: Hillary will be in Aurora (just east/southeast of Denver) to campaign for Sen. Barack Obama on Friday. Details to be announced.

Update: From Hillary's office:[More...]

On Friday, October 24, Senator Hillary Clinton will attend a “Pennsylvania Seniors for Obama” event hosted by AFSCME in Pittsburgh, PA followed by a “Change We Need” rally in Colorado.

On Saturday, October 25, Clinton will attend a rally for the Utah Democratic Party in West Valley City, UT followed by a “Change We Need” rally in Southland Park, NM.

Hillary Clinton will also travel to New Hampshire next week for events on behalf of Obama-Biden and Senate candidate Jeanne Shaheen.

On a related note, check out Hillary communication director Peter Daou's article this week on Huffpo on how the netroots have contributed to this election.

The 2008 election is a watershed and when my newborn daughter is old enough to understand, I'll share my pride (as fathers do) in the small part I played in a presidential race where two brilliant and dedicated Democrats, Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton, smashed through impenetrable barriers and changed the world.

I'll tell my daughter about the despicable ways women are treated across the globe and how she should fight every day of her life for fairness and dignity. I'll talk to her about the unspeakably ugly chapter in our history that so many brave men and women sacrificed their lives to bring to an end. Then I'll tell her where, when and how I cast my vote for President Obama, about the moment a thoughtful, decent and courageous man took the oath of office, when he reclaimed the White House, changed America, and when George W. Bush receded into that place in our minds where bad nightmares reside.

It's almost over and we're almost there. Just don't forget to vote.
