GOOD MORNING O'Malley Group!! Today is the day

Its 5:40AM or so .. Caucus day!!.. Cross post from GDP..

Its 5:40 AM and ready to caucus for Martin O'Malley

I am so excited.. after all this time to be able to stand up and vote for someone who has the best interest of our state in hand..

Someone who has actually put into action the policies he talks about.

Our caucuses are things of beauty.. we will be voting for delegates tonight to move on to the county caucuses and then on to the district and state.. and we will be party building and on the state level writing platforms.. and I am so looking forward to seeing those wonderful policies and plans become part of our state platform as his delegates go through the process..

Its early here.. (_)O(_)O(_)O(_)O coffee is up..

You woke, and I went to bed 1 hour thereafter. Awake (I think!) now! What a day!!!

I am just ready to take off.. I was at church yesterday.. and of course everyone knows I am an O'Malley supporter.. and I actually had a few people come up to me and say.. they have finally made up their minds.. and they are going to caucus O'Malley .. I just skipped out of there.. we are (well son more than me) working hard talking to the neighbors.. and we are getting a lot of good feed back.. so keeping my fingers, toes, and eyes crossed.. This is the day!!! I will be leaving in a couple of hours to help where I can

Saw them on MLK and I-235 while dropping my daughter off to school and honked and waved back.

I'm not going that way this cycle, but I think you have a fine candidate and I hope to hear more from him as time goes on.
