This is what the campaign is telling reporters:
"In his speech, Senator Obama will tell voters that after twenty-one months and three debates, Senator McCain still has not been able to tell the American people a single major thing he'd do differently from George Bush when it comes to the economy. Obama will ask Americans to help him change this country, and say that in just one week, they can choose an economy that rewards work and creates new jobs and fuels prosperity from the bottom-up, they can choose to invest in health care for our families and education for our kids and renewable energy for our future, and they can choose hope over fear, unity over division and the promise of change over the power of the status quo."
Alex Conant, an RNC spokesman, e-mails a response:
"Barack Obama is a weak closer precisely because his closing arguments ignore voters' underlying concerns about his inexperience. At a time when America faces historic crises, we should not elect somebody as untested and inexperienced as Obama. Make no mistake: Obama is asking voters to turn the keys to our economy over to Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid. Obama's latest speech is more of the same empty rhetoric repackaged with the urgency of tightening polls and still-undecided voters."
