Obama gave one of the clearest, most substantive explanations of the election (by either candidate) about what "changing Washington" means in Greenbay yesterday. He absolutely owned the reform issue. He offered a lot of promises, all of which he may not be able to live up to, but he at least offered more specifics than McCain, whose plan for reform seems to consists of 1) vetoing earmarks and 2) bringing Sarah Palin to Washington.

Unfortunately, I've hardly seen any mention of the plan in either the mainstream press or political blogs. Part of that is because of news about the financial crisis. But it is also because the speech was primarily about issues and plans, rather than an attack on McCain (although there was some of that). If Obama had taken the podium and called McCain a "grumpy old man," it would be on every front page in America. But talk about actual issues? Crickets.

Give it a watch:
