Obama changes focus to domestic issues
By Ed Tibbetts
Democratic presidential hopeful Barack Obama touted his energy policies here today, arguing that drilling offshore won’t produce any oil for at least 10 years. He also accused rival John McCain of doing the bidding of oil companies that are making record profits. Obama held a town hall meeting here and also visited victims of the June flooding as he set about refocusing his campaign on domestic issues in the wake of a much-publicized tour of Europe. Before a packed gymnasium on the Coe College campus here, Obama called for greater fuel-efficiency standards for cars, pushed a rebate to help consumers deal with high gas prices and said oil companies ought to drill on land they’ve already leased.
