STORYLINE Democratic governors lined up Tuesday to criticise Republican John McCain and offered a near-unison chorus of praise for their party's presumptive nominee, Barack Obama. Underscoring the governors' chatter was an appeal to populations where Obama had run weak in polls, particularly among rural and middle-class voters. The Democratic governors vouched that Obama deserved greater consideration from those voting blocs and that McCain was unacceptable. A day earlier, the convention faced criticism that it was too gentle in its comments on McCain and the man both he and Obama seek to replace, President George W Bush. Without pause, speakers repeated the message that McCain amounted to a third Bush term and said Democrats must not allow Republicans four more years in the White House. New York Governor David Paterson said McCain had voted with the Bush administration 95 percent of the time. "If he's the answer, the question must be ridiculous," he said. Kansas Governor, Kathleen Sebelius also outlined what she believed were the differences between Obama and McCain. "Barack Obama has a plan to save the dream for families who have lost their homes, or fear they can never afford one, unlike John McCain, who has so many he can't keep track of them all," she said. The governors' speeches were delivered to a largely empty auditorium. Keynote speakers Mark Warner and Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton were not scheduled to speak until the end of the evening. The governors were given short blocs - some prepared remarks were only a single page.
