Obama and Tim Kaine brings boxes of donuts to staff at a Fairfax campaign office as they participate in a Virginia Dems event.

Obama: "You've been moving, so you're allowed to have a little, little treat."
Kaine: "Either this crowd likes you or they like doughnuts." (via ABC)

Those people need to pull themselves up by their bootstraps and buy their own doughnuts! Like my grandparents did!

our wonderful president at one of his stops.

Why doesn't he ever come to Orange County, California? I feel so left out.

But, yes, I CAN imagine being there when he walked in. I'd probably wet my pants from excitement!! So, I guess it's good (at least for me) that he never stops by my neighborhood.

I miss him so much!

where the livestream link was supposed to start at 11:45 am and figured I was too late, but decided I'd try it anyway. Soon as I did click on the link (in the Video/Multimedia forum) I caught it right when they walked in as shown above.

Local faves in the area!

I know the owner of a few of those franchises, he's a damn fine Dem and former Alexandria city council member!

They didn't have to. They gained no votes from the volunteers. It was just thanking them, and it was a sweet thing to do.

Also: Doughnuts rule!
