Joined by eight Congressional candidates, Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee chairman Chris Van Hollen (D-Md.) took the stage tonight in Denver and told Democrats that it's not enough to support U.S. Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.). "For the change we need, we not only need to elect Barack Obama as our next president, we need to give him a robust Democratic majority in Congress," he said.

He then introduced the eight Democrats to the country, including state Sen. John Adler (D-Cherry Hill), who he called "a fighter for the middle class."
