10. People stop looking at the polls. Something is happening in this country |
|
Dem registration is way up and GOP reg is way down. McCain is not going to win.

14. When I heard he was speaking at the Arch today I knew there would |
|
be a huge crowd as the grounds there are enormous. Wish I could be there! I love St. Louis, (former resident).

16. hey, St. Louis is cheating! |
|
The area Obama will be at in Kansas City today only holds around 50k - so they'll beat us in turnout. Grrrrr......
On my way to see the next president!
