Obama heads to Indiana

Last Update: 6:21 am

DURYEA, Pa. (AP) - Barack Obama gets back on the campaign trail with his middle class message today after taking some time out for fundraising.

He'll appear at a rally at the Walbash Valley Fairgrounds in Terre Haute, Indiana.

Last night, rocker Bon Jovi hosted a fund-raiser at his New Jersey mansion for about 100 Obama supporters.

Earlier, in Pennsylvania, Obama seized on the new jobs report as part of his strategy to tie Republican John McCain to President Bush's economic policies.

Obama said the recently concluded GOP convention focused on its nominee's biography and "didn't say a thing about what is going on with the middle class."

Obama pointed to the 6.1 percent jobless rate for August, the highest rate in five years.
