Lone Star State Democrats Unite

Something remarkable happened today at the Texas Democratic Party State Convention in Austin. In the midst of http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ivSseLmD3w&eurl=http://my.barackobama.com/page/content/hqblog">Senator Clinton’s speech this morning, which was streaming to the convention, the video feed cut out. While the organizers worked to restore the stream, the crowd began to lift their voice. According to a local blog, http://pressprogress.blogspot.com/">Press Progress...

A chant went up 'O-ba-ma, O-ba-ma' that soon became 'United We Stand'. Some Clinton supporters … joined in the chant, enthusiastically poking Obama signs into the air.

http://www.democrats.org/page/community/post/stephTEXAS/C5fs/commentary">Dan from Texas, who is at the convention as we speak, added a little more detail to their account.

We joined hands, all of us. 12,000 Obama and Clinton supporters held hands together and shouted: ‘YES WE CAN, YES WE WILL!’

This marks a powerful display of unity on a remarkable day in our nation’s history. Please continue to reach out to your fellow Democrats, and help bring this party together in order to take the fight to John McCain.
