KEY BLOCK----- Hello All, Unfortunately we weren't able to send a tracker to this event. But good news: we were able to capture the event via online-streaming video. Below are the notes from that effort. Big Highlights* - Slams obama's supporters for saying "some pretty nasty things about W. PA" -- McCain trips over his words, saying I couldn't agree with them more-- I couldnt disagree with you -- I couldn't agree with you more - tries to save face, saying W. PA is the most patriotic, god-loving part of the country; they love their Amendments, their Const. - McCain adds that those supporters deserve credit for saying this openly not behind closed doors in SF - Continues the other attacks he's been making throughout the day/week, incl. Biden-Crisisgate (reminds crowd he's been tested, he was on USS enterprise on brink of nucl. war in Cuban missile crisis), Obama's spread-the-wealth/phony tax cut/government-giveaway approach, and saying obama campaign is attacking joe the plumber for asking an honest question - Continues themes of energy independence, housing refinance plan, tax relief for small businesses and health care that works for them * Pittsburgh, PA: McCain Rally 10/21/08 (Disclaimer: The following are notes, not direct quotes. If you'd like a quotable transcript or video of any part below, please email us.) Background details - Cindy intros McCain Speech Highlights wont she make a great First Lady? and wont palin make a great VP? can hardly wait to intro her to DC and the old boy network and clean up the place and drain the swamp. [sarah! sarah! sarah!] may i say its great to be here in Pittsburgh. we need to win PA. we're gonna bring real change to DC. you may hvae noticed, obama's supporters have been saying some pretty nasty things about W. PA lately [boos]. I couldn't agree with them more -- I couldnt disagree with you -- I couldn't agree with you more than the fact that W. PA is the most patriotic, god-loving part of the country. I could not disagree with them more, this is a great part of america, This is the heartland, this is where ppl love America and they serve it. So I'll give those supporters some credit –at least they say these things openly instead of behind closed doors in SF fundraiser [cheers]. People of of W. PA love their 2nd Amendment-- their Amendment rights, their Constitution b/c they love their country and their values and families, and they believe in the future of this country. That's what you're all about. its this sort of saying different things to different ppl that makes Joe the plumber want to ask Obama some tough questions. its a credit to joe, he is the one person who was able to get an answer out of Obama. after months of campaign trail eloquence, we finally learned his economic goals – spread the wealth around [boos] He believes in redistributing wealth not in policies growing the economy. he's more interested in controlling who gets your piece of the pie than in growing the pie. This explains big problems with his tax cut claim. How do you do that for 95% when 40% pay none now? Key to his plan, government writes them checks called a credit by taxing other people. Including people like joe. It's a government giveaway, don't need any more of that. Obama tax increase comes at the worst time possible. Small business provides 16 million jobs. his plan would kill jobs, I wont let that happen. Btw, joe the plumber was in his driveway, asked a question, got an answer, didnt like the answer, so guess what? the Obama camp attacks him. Whats that all about? america has an alt. to the phony tax cut my opponent started talking about just months ago. Mccain/Palin tax cut is the real thing. Double child deduction. Cut business tax, capital gains tax, help create jobs. Well keep American businesses in America, American didn't become greatest country in the world by government spreading the wealth around. We believe in spreading opportunity. That's what ill do as president. Next president won't have time to get used to office lots of enemies. Biden [boooooooooo] guaranteed if Obama is elected a international crisis will test new president. We don't want that! America is in crisis. He referred to jack Kennedy. I have experience. I was on board USS enterprise, waiting. We had a target. I know how close we came to nuclear war. I have been tested, he has not. What's more troubling is that he told campaign donors because it wasn't apparent he'd have the right response. We know he won't. We've seen the wrong response over and over. Surge strategy. –he's wrong. I'll bring our troops home with honor and victory, not in defeat. He said he'd sit down with the world's worst dictators. Georgia. Wrong on all of these things. We cant spend next 4 as we have the last 8, luck change. We have to fight for a new direction. I've been fighting since I was 17 and have scars to prove it. If I'm elected ill fight to shake up Washington every day. I'm not afraid of the fight, I'm ready for it. I'm not gonna spend 750 billion of your money bailing out bankers. Gonna make sure we take care of the people who were devastated by wall st greed. Started with home crisis, we're gonna turn it around. Buy up the bad mortgages. This administration should focus on American dream of owning home. I have retiree plan so they can rebuild savings. Raising taxes makes a bad economy much worse. Keep taxes low creates job, strengthen economy. The explosion of government spending over past 8 yrs has put us into debt to countries that don't like us very much. If elected, I wont spend 1 trillion more, Obama will. Hell tax. I'm gonna make government live on budget like you do. Ill freeze government spending – get rid of ones that don't work for Americans. First porkbarrell bill across my desk will be vetoed and you'll know their names. No more bridges to nowhere. DNA of bears in Montana – no money. I won't fine small business and children. Obama will fine you for healthcare. I'll bring down cost with competition and choice. I'll make sure you can keep your plan. Every American family 5000 credit for insurance. I wont make it harder to sell our goods oversees. Our trade will be free and fair. Ill make sure we help workers find jobs that won't go away. Last time we raised taxes and restricted trade at time like this – great depression. I know my history lessons and I wont make the mistake Obama will. When I'm elected president, with your help, we're gonna stop sending 700 bil to countries that don't like us very much. Obama will argue to delay drilling and building nuclear power plants. Listen to his words. Well drill now offshore when I'm president. We will invest in all the alternatives. Hybrid, flex fuel. Clean coal technology. PA sits on huge coal reserves. Lower cost of energy and create millions of new jobs in America. Straight talk – state of the race. 14 days to go. A few points down. Media has written us off [booooooooooo]. Obama is choosing cabinet, measuring the drapes and planning with pelosi and reid to raise taxes, increase spending and concede defeat in iraq. Ill never concede defeat anywhere in the world. They forgot to let you decide. We've got them just where we want them. America needs a fighter, puts all cards on the table. I have fought most of my life but I don't love America from the sidelines. America is great but we are at a moment of national crisis that will determine our future. Will we continue to lead the world's economies or will we be overtaken? Will the world become safer or more dangerous? Will our military remain the strongest in the world? [Will our children and grandchildren's future be brighter than ours? My answer to you is yes. Yes, we will lead. Yes, we will prosper. Yes, we will be safer. Yes, we will pass on to our children a stronger, better country. But we must be prepared to act swiftly, boldly, with courage and wisdom. I am an American and I choose to fight. Don't give up hope. Be strong. Have courage. And fight. Fight for a new direction for our country. Fight for what's right for America. Fight to clean up the mess of corruption, infighting and selfishness in Washington. Fight to get our economy out of the ditch and back in the lead. Fight for the ideals and character of a free people. Fight for our children's future. Fight for justice and opportunity for all. Stand up to defend our country from its enemies. Stand up, stand up, stand up and fight. America is worth fighting for. Nothing is inevitable here. We never give up. We never quit. We never hide from history. We make history. Now, let's go win this election and get this country moving again. TY and god bless you and god bless the united states of America. I need your help.
