Re: obama mommas?
Mon, May 19, 2008 - 8:02 AMMy good friend and her 2 yr old son did, and we had initially planned on going together, but wound up driving out of town for the day (family b-day obligations started earlier than i thought).
A small part of me- no, ok, a large part of me- the part that hates heat with a passion is extremely glad we didn't go as i'm already reading friend's blogs about the bone-crushing crowds, zero shade, and ungodly heat making it really nasty on ya.
I love the man tho, and woulda been happy to have seen our next president before he takes office. -

Hilary's for Obama!
Mon, May 19, 2008 - 10:36 AMI met Michelle Obama on Saturday, she visited the campaign office here. I have been volunteering, Anaya and I even went canvassing together. So I got a call that I should come down, so I did and she was there. I worked the last rally here and got to hear him speak.

there's no amount of money that would convince me to stand in a hot, sweaty crowd in the sun, with an active 18-month-old. i plan to vote, tho. -

Mon, May 19, 2008 - 6:57 PMYup, it's been seriously HOT here...crazy hot.
Portland is DEFINITELY an Obama friendly town.
If it wasn't crazy hot it would have been great to hear him.
