Whatever Obama says, this speech is just one move, and it’s only talk. The key is action. Tonight — between beers and popcorn — you’ll be able to take a few simple actions on your top issues. And you’ll meet two incredible people who roll up their sleeves and work for change every day: Rep. Grier Martin of Wake County (endorsed by Traction Action Fund in 2008) and Jenn Frye of Democracy NC. (Did I mention they’re both hot??)
I’m not going to lie — with health care reform up in the air and the economy still struggling, it’s been rough lately. But we WILL move this country forward. Tonight is Barack’s move. Tomorrow, it’s all of ours.
Go Team, Lanya
