My friend got to shake Obama's hand today at the flower shop!

She couldn't get into the rally in Abington, and saw some people gathered near Penney's Florists in nearby Glenside. On a hunch, she stopped and joined the crowd, and damned if Obama didn't show up to purchase flowers for his Anniversary (the owners are said to be staunch Republicans, but sometimes a guy's just gotta buy flowers)

She said the Secret Service came over to the small group and wanded them, and shortly afterwards, a truck showed up, Obama got out, bought the flowers, and shook their hands!!!

She said she got so nervous, she pretty much just babbled "Uh, you're doing great! Keep it up! We love you! The country needs you! Keep it up!"

She said she got so nervous she was shaking!
