DNC

Last night beowabbit and I went to a DNC watching party at The Precinct Bar in Union Square. It was a really great way to watch, there with lots of other excited supporters. At first I was afraid we wouldn't be able to hear because eveyone was talking, but they quieted down for the key speeches. We got to chat with a few other supporters, and beowabbit bought me a "Hot For Barack" tank top. The speeches were inspiring and invigorating, and by the end of Obama's nomination acceptance speech, my hands were sore from clapping so hard. I missed some speeches on the nights before, but I did catch Hillary's awesome speech on Youtube, and intend to look for Bill's and Teddy Kennedy's. The newest addition to my political crush list is the amazing, ass-kicking Joe Biden, who I didn't know much about until he was picked.

McSame just made his Veep pick. She's just a young chickadee, the same age as me, with not a whole lot more experience than me, either! And with 5 school-age children and violently neo-con positions on the issues. I'm going to love watching our Joe mop the floor with her.

Fired up!
