Obama for America takes out Web ads on the homefront of the Des Moines Register

DES MOINES -- President Obama definitely wants to be part of the conversation today in Iowa, and visitors to the website of the state's largest newspaper are being reminded about his take on the GOP caucuses.

Obama for America has taken out Web ads on the homefront of the Des Moines Register, which are running as banners at the top and sides of the page.



Obama plans to address Democratic caucusgoers tonight via a video hookup to get them fired up to help him with another term. Democratic allies are also here in town to deliver Obama's message and to "fact check" the GOP candidates, particularly Mitt Romney.

"While the Republican candidates didn't build a lasting ground organization in Iowa to boost them in November, they did leave a legacy of proposals that Americans will overwhelmingly reject, like returning to the policies that led to the economic crisis and leaving our troops in Iraq indefinitely," Obama campaign spokesman Ben LaBolt said.
