I found the clip of his speech and it ended up ticking me off. Not because of him but because of some rude people there. One lady behind him was on her cell phone.

Did anyone see the 10-11pm crowd in Manassas, VA last night? I was watching on CSPAN, the speech was much the same as Obama has given over the last few days.

But, in an area very close to where I lived in Warrenton, I was proud and amazed to see a crowd of an estimated 100,000 in what I saw a very red part of the Northern VA on a school night.

Andrew just shared this with me:

Quote:

The First Election Results Are in Already The polls have already closed in Dixville Notch, NH [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dixville_Notch%5d because all 21 eligible voters have cast their ballots. This village of 75 people traditionally opens the polls at midnight on election day and closes them a few minutes later after the last voter has performed his or her civic duty. Barack Obama got 71% [http://us.cnn.com/2008/POLITICS/11/0.../index.html%5d of the vote here today. Dixville Notch is not a good bellwether, however; it has voted solidly Republican for decades. The last Democrat to carry the Notch was Hubert Humphrey in 1968. It is probably not a good start for McCain to have early election day news dominated by a story about a solidly Republican rural village voting overwhelmingly for Obama.

12 election threads comes home to roost. First Obama's grandmother, now the early New Hampshire results. We are going to cover the same ground over and over because we have 12 different threads on essentially the same subject.

it's going to be a long and repetitive election day.
