Tim Kaine's Iowa Caucus eve message for Obama

Virginia hasn't voted for a Democrat for president since 1964.

But you and I know that Democrats are on the rise here.

Virginians are tired of the same old games. We're hungry for excellence in the next president -- excellence in character, in intellect, and in judgment.

That's exactly what Barack Obama has shown, from his time as a community organizer working with churches in Chicago to his service in the U.S. Senate.

I support Barack because he inspires me. But that's not the only reason.

I also support him because I'm a practical person. I want to win -- and no Democrat has a better chance of winning Virginia and winning the White House in 2008 than Barack Obama.

Now's the time to get involved. There's incredible grassroots energy among Obama supporters here in Virginia, and I hope you'll join us at this important moment:

Whether you look at the polls that show he's the Democrat who can beat every single Republican candidate or you listen to the stories from his overwhelming base of support among Democrats, independents and even Republicans, it's clear that Barack can and will win in every part of the country.

This movement is a beautiful thing to see.  Rank-and-file Democrats are fired up, and people who haven't participated in politics before are engaging for the first time.

Barack Obama is the right candidate to be president -- and he's the right candidate to revive our democracy and bring more people into the process.

Join me and sign up now:

With your help, we can make Barack our Democratic nominee.

And with him at the top of the ticket in November, we'll make history.

Thank you,

Tim Kaine
