You have to wait in line to vote in Madison, WI

John Kerry came to Madison yesterday to tell us all to vote early. It was crowded so I went downtown today, but there was a line out the door, with what I expect are OBAMA voters!

What a handsome presidential senator he is!

1. Yep - and the man most responsible for blocking the fascist agenda of the last 35 years

Lest some Dems forget how truly cool those lawmakers are who risk much to stand up to the fascists. ;)

2. I was underwhelmed with Kerry in 2004 (but I did vote for him)

I guess I just thought he paled in comparison to Gore. Now I think I admire him more with each passing day. He is still in there fighting, and does nothing but grow in stature with each passing challenge.

4. I think of him as one of the distinguished party elders

along with Biden and Kennedy and a few others. Running for president is a sacrifice- he did the best he could and I'm sure he'd do it differently if he could do it over. He's a good man and he really has served this country. I've seen him in person and he strikes me as very dignified and respectful toward others.

5. Way cool!

I appreciate him coming to WI to do this for Obama and making so many stops. I think our local politicians were even thrilled to meet him.

7. There was a sign that said NO POLITICAL DISCUSSIONS in line.

But its MADISON, Wisconsin. Republicans don't even visit.
