President Obama Makes Case For Second Term

Nearly 200 Ohio delegates to the Democratic National Convention are making their way home today from North Carolina. They got a send-off last night with an acceptance speech by President Obama. There have been two common call and response chants among the Ohio delegation in Charlotte. The first one of course is OH IO. And the second one, used by delegates from all the states, is “Fired Up – Ready To Go.â€? And that’s what Ohio Democrats were feeling after four or five very long days wrapped up with the final acceptance speech by their flag bearer Barack Obama. The President had one reference to the Buckeye state last night and got the Ohio section on their feet.
