Barack Obama actually said...

"We need a new direction in Washington and that's what we've been offering throughout this campaign."

"A vote for John McCain is a vote for George Bush's third term."

"That's what our government should be about. Not about who's high in the polls or who is saying what about who. But rather who's helping you make sure you can achieve your American dream."

"Because Washington has failed the American people and this election is our chance to turn the page."
