Read this.
Bridget told me a story the other night of a friend who took her 7 year old son to the Manassas Rally (on Election eve) that's described in this article. 90,000 people showed up and the rally went late; Obama didn't even speak until 10:30. The next morning the friend roused her son, who was still exhausted from the night before, and asked what he thought about Obama. Without even opening his eyes or getting up, he just lifted his arm into the air and said "Fired up".
Me, too.

So I was already a wee bit annoyed that your last post (Obama's letter to Chicago-I-mean-Illinois) proved beyond question that I am not yet to the point where I can make it through a day without welling up, but come on -- this is brutal (i.e., spectacular) stuff. Full on bawl-fest. Give a girl a break!
Actually, thanks loads for directing us to this, Ilsa -- absolutely magical!
