FROM BARACK OBAMA'S WEBSITE AND NEWSLETTER:

Weather-wise, there has been only one word on the campaign trail since last night's debate: rain. It has been coming down in buckets, all the way from rainy Nashville to soggy Indianapolis.
But that didn't stop 21,000 Hoosiers (according to Robert L. Miller II from the Division of Fire & Building Safety) from crowding into the stands at the State Fair Grounds in Indianapolis to hear Barack Obama address the economic challenges that our nation faces. Things are bad now, and they could get worse. "Home heating prices may go up 30 percent," Barack told the attendees of the rally, "and the money you saved up for things like your kids' college education is disappearing faster than you can count."
But as bad as things look, Barack took time to remind us what makes America and Americans great, and why he believes we will succeed in the end.
