Political Developments

OH-bama. Holy smokes, Michelle Obama was was incredible last night. As she finished speaking and the daughters joined her on stage, I got another intuitive feeling that I was staring at the next First Family.

Hillary's speaking right now. It's the perfect speech, really, at least so far. It's what she needed to do- she's mentioned all the issues that are important to her and contrasted McCain's values and positions to her own and the Democratic platform. She's now quoting Harriet Tubman-- the Keep Going words. And Michelle Obama is giving her a standing ovation.

Man, I love this stuff.

On a side note, at the Minnesota State Fair today, we walked by the Republican booth and when they offered Johan a balloon, I shouted "GO-BAMA!" and Johan scowled at those balloon-offering fascists.
