Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama made an unannounced stop in Greensboro Wednesday morning.

Obama Makes Stop At Greensboro Curb Market

The Illinois senator greeted voters at a the Greensboro Farmer's Curb Market on Yanceyville Street, where he spoke about their families and munched on homemade biscuits.

"Those peaches look good," he quipped to the crowd that had lined up to take pictures.

On Tuesday, Obama held a town hall event in Raleigh. He told supporters he will "need to win" in North Carolina in November to beat expected Republican nominee John McCain in their race for the White House.

There were no hints from Obama at either stop as to whom he might pick as a running mate.

His supporters are awaiting a text message this week for that news, and Obama is expected to campaign later this week with his choice back home in Illinois.
