Obama gets equal speakout on KDKA
Pittsburgh:No fooling: Just like his opponent, Barack Obama got some time on KDKA Radio this morning. In the 12-minute interview, Obama denied that he's encouraging Hillary Clinton to drop out of the Democratic primary. He said Clinton should stay in the race as long as she wants and he would compete with her to the end.
This was the first radio interview Obama granted to a Pittsburgh station during the race. A podcast is available at kdkaradio.com
