democratic caucus in texas...

tonight jay and i attended the democratic caucus in uptown along with about 500 - 600 other folks from precinct 1202 (which i am told in 2004 had about 10 attendees).  according to stickers, t-shirts, posters and hats worn, there was a dramatic obama following in attendance.  i would guess upwards of 90%.  i felt (based on the STRONG feelings i sensed) like one of the few that attended the event that would personally be pretty happy with either candidate, but i won't get into that now (however, as of now, it looks like they will both still be in the race tomorrow morning, so this stands to be one of the closest races in recent history!  sooo exciting.).  to me it was exciting to know that my vote actually counted this year - that the democratic vote is a factor here.  it is so exciting to truly be a part of the "process."

when we got home, the kids were holding a caucus of their own - i guess we are rubbing off on them, our sweet little politicos...

"si, se puede"

yes, we can!!

i'm tired, get your votes in, harris county!
