The Brody File has learned that the Obama campaign met with over 30 House members and senior staff this morning to strategize on Obama’s faith outreach strategy this fall.
A meeting participant tells The Brody File it was a “high level strategy session” that focused on how to stress Barack Obama’s family values and how to respond to faith based attacks from his religious conservative critics on the right. The off-the-record briefing was led by Obama’s religious outreach team and when the meeting was over, House members and senior staff in the room agreed to host values forums in their district and talk publicly about Obama’s family values in their surrogate work. The meeting focused quite a bit on Catholic outreach. According to one member in the room, the mood was very positive and upbeat.
