I can say that I was there

Oct. 30th, 2008 | 02:17 am

I was in Kissimmee tonight, listening to Barack Obama talking to the crowd.  I was in that crowd, clapping and cheering along with so many others.  It was 51 degrees outside and yet during the rally, I wasn't cold at all....because there were SO MANY people there all around us that the collective body heat made it about 20 degrees warmer.

This was the first political rally I have ever been to.  It was amazing....that basically a midnight rally on a Wednesday night would draw so many people.  That people were making connections all around us.  That I hope with all my heart that tonight I was in the presence of the next President of the United States.

I am so ready for change.
