Speech-watching bash in Milwaukee on Aug. 28! Mark your calendar
Get together with 2,500 other Democrats to watch Barack Obama accept our nomination for president. This will be the next best thing to being in Denver to watch this history-making event (also cheaper and more comfortable).

Free tickets for watching the speech at the Pabst Theater will be available some time next week (more precise information to follow). Invite all your friends and get ready to feel the hope.

:woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:

2. That would be Thursday, next.
Consider my calendar marked. (I promise not to leave any gum under the seat.)

4. The tickets are going fast, folks
Stop in at one of the campaign offices and get yours before they run out. Doors open at 6:30 on Thursday.

5. If you can't get to a campaign office, reserve a ticket online
Here's another way to get tickets: reserve one or more online by going here:

http://my.barackobama.com/page/event/detail/conventionwatchparty/gpl97j

You'll need to arrive by 8 p.m. to be sure your ticket is still being held for you in case all the others have been given out.
Doors open at 6:30 and the program should get under way about 7:00. The address is 144 E. Wells Street.

This should be a great event, so don't miss it!

6. Didn't make it to the Pabst, but what a wonderful speech.
After watching the MSNBC crew rave about it for a minute or two, I switched
over to CNN.

CNN's Andrea Mitchell also seemed overwhelmed, very impressed.

I turned to FAUX News...

...one of the best things I've ever heard, there...

...a very, very long silence.

They couldn't think of anything nasty to say.
