Over the past 25 years, we've seen the deregulation of the airline industry, the financial services industry, the telephone industry, we're starting to see it in the utilities. And this is changing so many things for consumers. It's leading to more choice and lower prices but in many cases it's also leading to tougher decisions and more headaches.

We will win because you have stuffed more envelopes, and you have licked more stamps, and you have knocked on more doors and made more telephone calls than you have made for any candidate before. Let's turn out like we've never done before on November 7, and you will have made the sweetest history.

One of my friends said almost nothing is left. Buildings are down, electricity is gone. Telephone lines are down and rain is pouring in and hundreds of people are lying dead and nobody's there to bury them.
