Join President Obama and me (Desperate Creigh Deeds to Rally with Obama Oct 27)

Dear Obamaphile--

Having President Obama's support in my campaign for governor of Virginia is an honor. The only thing to match it is having the support of you and the movement that made President Obama's victory possible.

Thanks to you, Virginia's future is stronger and its politics will never be the same. But what you did in 2008 was only the beginning, and I want to make sure that what you started never stops.

We're currently facing the effects of the failed national policies of the past -- unemployment, struggling small businesses, and too many home foreclosures. We can't afford to implement policies here in Virginia that are at the root of these economic challenges. As governor, my first priority will be to turn this around by creating jobs through a statewide transportation plan, making Virginia a leader in green-energy jobs, and making government leaner and more efficient. That's the kind of forward-looking vision and leadership Virginia needs -- and I need you to make sure it happens.

Next Tuesday, October 27th, President Obama will be visiting Virginia to rally supporters and fire up the commonwealth in this final stretch. Until then, we'll be talking to voters across the commonwealth and building support for my campaign. Here's the really exciting part: anyone who visits one of my field offices this weekend can sign up for the chance to meet and get a photo taken with President Obama on Tuesday. One individual will be randomly selected to have their picture taken with President Obama before the rally.

Visit a field office this weekend and you could meet President Obama.

This movement believes in real, practical ideas that put aside the rhetoric and partisanship that are at the root of the problems we face. We can't afford to take a step back now after all you've done to move us forward.

You proved that a campaign based on face-to-face contact and conversations between neighbors can change the country. You showed that cynical politics and divisiveness can be defeated when people come together for a larger cause.

We've got to make sure that the people this movement brought into the political process vote again and stay engaged. That's the only way we'll win this election -- and each one after it.

Come to a field office this weekend and you could meet the President on Tuesday:

Thank you,

Creigh Deeds

Obama is telling Deeds what he told Jane Sturm’s 100-year old mother: “you know what, maybe this isn’t going to help. Maybe you’re better off not having the surgery but taking the painkiller.”

What we are seeing here is the political equivalent of a death panel. The Obama spin doctors have decided that grandpa Deeds should be given some pain medication and left for dead. Why spend political capital on a terminal case, they figure. “If only you had come to see us sooner”, they lament.

The is how the president’s “Democrat Candidates Health Care Plan” works.
