At the park last night while watching Ali play beach volleyball, I got a text message from Barack. Well, technically I think Barack was busy getting ready for his big speech in Denver so it probably wasn't directly from him. . .but you get the idea.
I think getting people involved and excited by using what's becoming the preferred communication of the masses is brilliant. When was the last time you heard people under 40 excited about a presidential campaign? It's happening now. Especially when you contrast this with McCain who is rumored to not even use a computer.
I responded to this message from Barack. I volunteered to work on his political campaign. I'm sure it will be fun and challenging and like nothing I've ever done before – especially since we're in Findlay.*
I wonder how many other political neophytes volunteered last night?
* There was a quote from a Democrat in yesterday's newspaper that said something like, "If Adolph Hitler was a Republican the people in Findlay would vote him in." Get the picture about Findlay??

Can I just tell you how much fun it is to live in a blue state? After Georgia and Ohio, Massachusetts is like political paradise. Obama stickers everywhere, all kinds of people excited about him...kinda makes me all misty. But I did make sure to apply to get an absentee ballot from Ohio.
