14. But, but ... It was the LORD's day of rest...

Remember ye not the words of Our Lord?

Verily, I say unto thee
Upon the 7th day
Kick it with the Decemberists
Slather on the sunblock
Hang out by the Willamette
And chill with Barack

11. It's just exhilarating to see that many people enthusiastically turn out for a political candidate.

Is change in the wind? You bet it is.

12. Its even more amazing when you consider

the weather. Its been a hard winter and most of us would rather take a May day such as this to play...but no! 75,000 Oregonians just had to see the next President of the United States....
Silly webfoots!

In my little town, O supporters out number the Hills by 3 to 1, easy...

22. Somebody should make a gif of that first picture.

Start with it zoomed in on Obama then slowly pan out to show the whole crowd.
