| Notes.
The press release provides this background:
At a fundraiser in San Francisco on April 11, 2008 that was
closed to the press, Sen. Obama said: “You go into some of these small
towns in Pennsylvania, and like a lot of small towns in the Midwest,
the jobs have been gone now for 25 years and nothing's replaced them.
And they fell through the Clinton administration, and the Bush
administration, and each successive administration has said that
somehow these communities are gonna regenerate and they have not. So
it's not surprising then that they get bitter, they cling to guns or
religion or antipathy to people who aren't like them or anti-immigrant
sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their
frustrations.”
