QUINCY, Ill. (AP) - Senator Barack Obama visited the Illinois community of Quincy today to see flooded areas along the Mississippi River for himself.
During his stop this afternoon, the Democratic presidential candidate helped fill sandbags that are being trucked to both sides of the Mississippi River.
He says he hasn't seen this kind of devastation since he's been in public office.
