Obama draws 75,000 people in Portland (pics)
That's my home town. As much as I love Obama I don't love him enough to fight that kind of traffic!
 BTW This is a record for any rally ever here. Record Obama Crowd, the Size of a City | The Trail | washingtonpost.com |

You were supposed to be there Eric. Where's the commitment? And you could have gotten to Obama to tell him about Political Groove. At least handed him a card with a recommended donation amount.
I bet when he got back to the hotel he would have checked the site out (or at least one of his staffers would have, and then might have recommended that the rock star check it out too). Geez man. I have to do marketing for you too. |
