6. I was sitting back where you were

with the volunteers in the "blue" section? Thanks for sharing your pics. My camera picked today to die and I don't think my cell phone pics are going to be any good.

I hope you've had a good hot meal by now.

19. I'm so jealous of people at indoor events!

Got two emails about an event in Chester County, PA, but it's OUTSIDE early tomorrow morning.

Don't know if you're watching the Series, but the weather near Philly is pretty stinky, and the rain should continue though tomorrow.....

God, I want to here Obama's "closing the deal" speech.

I really enjoyed the rally!

18. I was there too!

I haven't been this hoarse since Super Bowl XIII (Steelers beat the Cowboys).

It was a great event. I felt like I was finally breathing oxygen again after 8 years of suffocation.

Did you hear how he referred directly to me? "There may be some of you out there who may have become cynical or despondent..." YES BARACK! Right over here!!! Me me me me me!!

Had lots of interesting conversations with folks there, like The Reverse Bradley Effect. I volunteered that I have a number of sane Republican friends who despise Monkey Boy as much or more than I do, and are 100% behind Obama, but some of them feel intimidated by their crazy Republican friends, so they don't put up signs or even dare speak about how strongly they support him. Several others laughed and said they all had friends like that, and one called it The Reverse Bradley Effect -- people who in public say they would never vote for a Democrat or a black man, but will do so in the privacy of the voting booth. Chew on that, Candy Crowley!

Word has it that a very prominent Republican family in the Burgh are behind Obama, but just can't say so in public.

But moving on to the subject of Crazy Republicans -- as the post-rally crowd streamed into post-rush hour downtown Burgh, I saw two young guys in suits walking against the tide. One of them was a dittohead and said to the other -- "You see! All of these people have time to go to this rally because they won't get jobs!" Asshole.
