Mr. Coolincluding my cousin, erin, and my mom--both previous hill-raisers. the latter texted me, and i quote, "so excitin'! lines blocks long!! nc goin democratic (after) 30 years!! obamas adorable." (notice how she's stopped using the letter "g" after 4 years in the south).
according to the charlotte observer: "The crowd got so large, they lifted the barriers to areas that had previously been cordoned off to try and accomodate the overflow. Some people even started breaking through hedges and climbing low walls just to be able to hear him."
erin promised to send me a pic, will post when i get it.
also, according to daily kos daily poll: obama 49, mccain 42. and that, my friends, is damn good news. if the economy needs to tank for people to realize that republicans=bad, bring. it. on.
oh, and on 60 minutes just now i'm pretty sure that mccain, when asked if we were in a recession said: "technically, i don't know". and that pretty much sums it up.

We went too! Your other cousin Amy and her family. Matt and I are sure the kids will appreciate it one day. We saw so many people and the crowd was awesome. GO NC!
Forgot to mention we broke through several hedges. The kids were perplexed by our unruly behavior!
