1. Hey! I was there! (in Lancaster)
The bad news: I waited in line for 2 1/2 hours and couldn't get in.

The good news: There were SO MANY PEOPLE there that I couldn't get in after I waited in line for 2 1/2 hours!!! :bounce:

I got 2 new t-shirts and got to meet some great people in line. Then I walked around the back of the venue and saw Barack getting out of his big black SUV and go in to speak. I waited til he went in and heard the BIG CHEER, and figured I could see it on YouTube or something tomorrow... so I went home.

I'm glad I went. I actually got to see him closer (when he got out of his vehicle) than I would have if I'd been inside the venue.

Holy cow, though, when I was growing up in Lancaster, there were like 8 Democrats in the whole county (slight exaggeration). It was AWESOME to see so many people turn out!!! :woohoo:

4. Last photo - I see a sea of white people who are
listening intently to Barack Obama in Lancaster Pennsylvania and they are not bitter.
