6. Little of Both
It was a very small intimate event, at times within 5 feet of him. He took the ropes down and came into the crowd for us to ask questions. I could have shaken his hand but went for more pics instead and told him I was proud of what he has done.

5. Today, my older sister said that she will join and be active with Progressives for Obama.
Most of her career has been in managing Women's issues in our Community. She raised an absolutely stellar family. She's retired now and WAS urging people to not vote a couple of years ago, in order to let the political system crash and burn, so we can build a new one. She has been following Obama closely and I have been urging her to bring her expertise to local activism.

7. Was this the place where a woman called out from the audience...
...to tell Joe he was "gorgeous"?

Great photos!

11. Yes it was. :)
It got quite the laugh as well and not the sexist remark I have seen some people trying to make of it.

17. It was suppose to be 90 degrees today here.
Not sure if it made it but it sure felt like it. The campaign even passed around sunblock though, I thought that was considerate.
