Obama Meet-Ups in Springfield Saturday

Sen. Barack Obama's presidential campaign is holding thousands of meet-ups this Saturday, including a few in Springfield.

"This Saturday, literally thousands of Obama supporters will open up their homes to bring this campaign into communities like yours. Barack will be there too -- via live online video and a simultaneous conference call," blasts an Obama 2008 release.

"Many hosts have never done something like this before. But they're opening up their homes to provide an opportunity for you to meet face-to-face with local folks who share your same hope for the future."

One event appears to be scheduled in connection with Democratic Jackson Days.
