NH is Obama Country!

Just got back from holding an Obama sign at the local polling place then picking up some goodies for a celebratory gathering this evening. What a morning! Memorable events in no particular order:

1. McCain supporter yelled at us because there was no one at the polling place holding a McCain sign! :)

2. As I voted, I could hear the woman in the next booth telling her child, 'Fill in that bubble right there, just like you do on a test. You're going to be able to tell everyone you voted for America's first black President.'

3. Two crazy-ass Rethuglicans yelling 'Heil Obama' at as.

4. A woman coming out of the school and walking past us said to me 'I just want to shake your hand.'

5. A woman who was 80 years old if she was a day winking at me and giving me a sly little 'thumbs up.'

6. Pappa V out there like he was 20 years old again.

7. Democratic sign holders outnumbering republicans by at least 4-to-1. In New Hampshire. In Epping.

The champagne is chilling!

Oh, Epping makes me proud! Hip hip hooray!

I hope to have a second party-in-the-streets night in one week's time here in Philly.
