correct version:
At a rally in Anderson, Indiana, Obama responded to critics who say he has not been tough enough in responding to Clinton's verbal jabs.
"I am not interested in fighting people just for the sake of scoring political points or getting on the cable news shows. If I am going to fight somebody, it is going to be fighting over the American people and what they need. I will fight for health care. I will fight for a good education system. I will fight to make sure that people have good jobs and good wages. I will fight to the death to make sure that America is safe. Those things I will fight for. That is what I will fight about." Polls show that Obama has a substantial lead in North Carolina, and that in Indiana, the two Democrats are either even or Obama has a slight lead.The presumptive Republican nominee, Senator John McCain, did not make any campaign appearances on Saturday, after appearing in the Southern state of Arkansas Friday with former Governor Mike Huckabee, a one-time rival for the Republican presidential nomination.

参考译文
在印第安纳州安德森市的一次集会中,对那些批评自己对希拉里•克林顿言辞攻击的回应不够强硬的批评者,奥巴马做出了回应。
“如果仅仅是为了获得政治积分或出现在电视新闻中而与人为战,我不感兴趣。如果我打算和某人为战,那将是为了美国人民,为了他们的需要而战。我会为卫生保健奋斗。我会为好的教育系统而奋斗。我会为确保人们有好的工作和好的收入而奋斗。我会为保护美国的安全而奋斗到底。这些是我将会奋斗的,也是我打算奋斗的。”
民意调查表明奥巴马在北卡罗来纳明显领先,而且,在印第安纳州,两位民主党人支持率持平或奥巴马略微领先。
