A Great Week To Be An Obama Supporter

It has been a great week to be an Obama supporter. On Tuesday, the Illinois Senator gave one of the most impressive speeches on race our nation has heard.


On Friday, he held a rally in Portland where he received the endorsement of Gov. Richardson. Shannon was swift in getting us two tickets. It was an early morning. We arrived at Memorial Coliseum at 6:45 AM to join a crowd waiting for the doors to open at 7:30 for a rally that began at 9:30. All time well spent. We sat one section up behind the main podium. Richardson's speech was inspiring and very complementary of Obama. Seeing Obama in person was inspiring. He is even more polished, motivational, and intelligent (though a little bit skinnier) in person than he is on TV.
