"Easy wasn't in the cards."
The crowd laughed again.
"I always tease Barack. I say, 'You just don't do things easy, do you?' But just because it's not easy doesn't mean it's not possible."
The crowd broke into loud applause.

REPUBLICAN CONVENTION
Democrats to Use Image Of McCain Embracing Bush
SEDONA, Ariz. -- Democrats are planning to use images of John McCain embracing President Bush on billboards and in bus stops around Minneapolis and St. Paul during the Republican National Convention next week, part of an effort to drive home their message that McCain represents "more of the same" in Washington.
The images show McCain and Bush in a hearty embrace against a black background. The words "More politics as usual" and "Does this look like change to you?" are written above and below the image.
The ad will run in more than 20 bus shelters, Democratic sources say, including four that serve the Xcel Center, where the convention is being held. It will also run on a mobile billboard that will follow McCain from Dayton, Ohio, to the convention.
