Obama Visits Asheville
12 October 2008 - 9:18pm — MattASHEVILLE – Sen. Barack Obama told 28,000 people gathered in and around Asheville High School Memorial Stadium that his proposals would ensure affordable health care for all Americans while Sen. John McCain’s plan would put health care further out of reach.
Speaking for 40 minutes while in Asheville for debate rehearsal Sunday afternoon, Obama sought to tie health care problems to the broader economic slowdown and the collapse of Wall Street titans.
Economic woes have helped Obama climb into a lead in national polls and a tie in North Carolina. But Obama said McCain wants to change the subject to “Swiftboat-style attacks on me.”
