Obama Fever

I can't speak for all of Indiana, but I do believe that South Bend is going to go Democratic. After a drive through the west side on my way back from dropping B-Ray off at school, I would say that this town is damn near celebratory. Those that didn't vote early got up early today to go to the polls. The sidewalks had lots of people walking on them: Freshly showered, coffee-drinking, smiling, red-white-and-blue-wearing people. And on the corner of Cottage Grove and Lincolnway, two middle-aged ladies were dancing--and I mean really dancing, joyously--and waving their Obama signs, and everyone driving by honked in support of their efforts. I feel good. This is exciting. Let's go Indiana!
