Clinton’s plan in a $2.5 billon job-retraining program. Taking a stab at John McCain, she said, “We need a president who is ready and willing and able to answer that call. It seems like if the phone were ringing, he would just let it ring. And ring and ring” McCain responded by saying “there is a tendency for liberals to seek big government programs that sock it to American taxpayers while failing to solve the very real problems we face.”

The candidates continue to campaign. Clinton is off to Indiana while Obama heads out on a bus tour across the state of Pennsylvania.
