MANCHESTER, NH—Obama campaign manager David Plouffe released the below statement following this evening’s debate in Philadelphia.
 

“At tonight’s debate, Barack Obama demonstrated the real choice in this race.  On issues from Social Security to Iran to being open with the America people about her record, Senator Clinton offered more of the same Washington calculation, ducking and dodging that won’t bring the change America needs.  Barack Obama demonstrated the kind of leadership that will bring change we can trust – the ability to bring this country together, stand up to the special interests, and tell the American people not just what we think they want to hear, but what they need to know about the challenges we face.  That’s the kind of leadership Barack Obama has demonstrated through his two decades of service to America, and that’s what he’ll offer as President of the United States,” said Obama campaign manager David Plouffe.
