Look at these two. Don’t they look they should be friends? Well, starting tonight, they will, whether they like it or not. The Obama Campaign just announced its “Campaign For Change” series of statewide grand openings for local campaign offices tonight, and guess what? Tonight, the Dude is the guest of honor/speaker at the Obama campaign office at 1500 Sansom Street, Suite 400 from 6 to 8pm. Good for you, Dude! We’ve been wondering since forever when you were gonna lay down your weary dickhurt tune about Chaka Fattah snaking that Obama endorsement during the mayoral campaign (seriously, Barry, that was sooooo ill-advised), and finally, TODAY IS THE DAY! Meanwhile, Fattah is out at 210 West Chelton Avenue, pondering the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune. We’re kind of liking this already. Full list of locations, etc. after the jump.

TONIGHT: Obama’s Campaign for Change to Hold Grand Openings across the
State

Sen. Bob Casey, Mayor Michael Nutter, Congressmen Patrick Murphy and
Chaka Fattah among the headliners at open houses and other events that
will be held at all 29 offices

Philadelphia, PA - Today, the presidential campaign of U.S. Senator
Barack Obama (D-Ill.) in Pennsylvania announced the opening of 29 Obama
Campaign for Change field offices across the state. The offices will
celebrate their grand openings tonight.

“We are in the process of building a strong campaign organization, the
size and scope of which this state has never seen before. These 29
field offices are in every region of the state, including towns that
have never seen a presidential campaign office before. We will be
encouraging Pennsylvanians to reject McCain’s same old, tired, failed
policies that George Bush has offered this country for the last eight
years,” said Obama’s Pennsylvania State Director Craig Schirmer.

The Campaign for Change field offices are conveniently located for Obama
volunteers - 93% of the campaign volunteers living within 30 miles of
field offices located across the state, providing greater opportunity
for Pennsylvanians to learn more about Senator Obama and get involved.
In an effort to increase voter turnout, each office will participate in
a massive voter registration drive to expand the electorate and build
upon an energized and unified Democratic Party.
