I love the photo of them with Obama; apparently he spotted them from his campaign bus, hopped off and jogged back to the roadside to shake hands with them.
Speaking as a pinko commie liberal foreigner (and proud of it *g*), it's pretty cool to have my preconceptions shaken up by people like that.
Oh, yay! I hadn't seen this :-) I so want him to win the Presidency. I'm getting pretty cranky about all the McCain signs in my neighborhood. I want to jump up and down screaming "Are you listening?"
I owe you a call, bebe since I can't get enough time scraped together for an e-mail :sigh: I'll talk to you this week!

I look forward to chatting on the phone. I miss you. O.O

Yeah -- it's been good for me to be surprised and to realize that I had that set of assumptions and prejudices, you know?
