While President elect Obama readies his announcement, Philadelphia is getting ready for a major visit and meeting on Tuesday.
Independence Hall, chosen by Governor Ed Rendell the host and head of the national governors, is an historical landmark like no other and so it is fitting that the nation's governors will gather with the incoming president to talk about what could be a revolution in the financial history.
Many of the governor's states are facing financial c rises at the local level. Philadelphia is a good example of that and a dialogue with the governors is essential to get legislative support for Obama's coming financial stimulus program, Governors want tax relief; new bridges and projects to create jobs.
This is not just a ceremonial photo opportunity event.
