Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The economic crisis was a major issue that dominated the last couple of months of the 2008 campaign. The collapse of the housing market and the financial crisis were top concerns for voters and both candidates had to address their plans for economic recovery. Health care and the war on terror were also important issues, but they were not as prominent in the final stages of the campaign. The mounting war effort against Iraq was a factor, but the focus had shifted to domestic issues. Illegal immigration was not a major issue in the 2008 campaign.
