PA Paints Huge Hope for Obama

[PatSeg]

<Some farmers in rural PA grow pumpkins, but Jim Lennox managed to figure out how to grow enormous Hope in his field in Shickshinny PA. Enlisting 15 artists, ages 8 through 80, from five North Eastern PA counties, Jim Lennox and his wife Hilary Ross super-sized Shepard Fairey's Obama Hope Campaign poster into a whopping 100 by 70 foot painting on their lawn. Visible from the air, the 7000 square foot painting was created using environmentally safe, water-based athletic field paints and was completed on October 20th. It is dedicated to Barack Obama, and to all of those who have supported this amazing campaign of hope. If you are flying into the Scranton/Wilkes Barre airport, look out the window! Go Obama!!!>

12. I hear you. I am so nervous right now. Hopeful but nervous.

I seriously need to have a few drinks BEFORE the returns start coming in, maybe just a few beers to take the edge off. I am so not kidding either. By the way, I love that picture of Joe you have on your posts, he looks so thoughtful there.

13. I understand

A part of me remembers 2004 when I thought there was no way GW would win. The emotional residue is still there and I can't completely shake it.

I love that picture of Joe too. I've been through so many, but that one really stuck!

Let me know when you hit that first beer and I'll join you!!!!

for some reason, it makes me tear up. Maybe it's this as well as the thought of him losing his grandma today.

I was so hoping she'd make it until he was elected, but maybe a part of her knew already.
