My Millennium Park, Chicago experience
I'm pooped, so I will keep it short. Hearing Barack's voice ring throughout the lakeshore park of Chicago on such a beautiful autmun night will be with me for the rest of my life. Obama has called on us to help, to rebuild this country, and I am ready....scared that I can't be cynical and lazy anymore! But ready. We've done good, DU.

2. That was one of the most amazing experiences of my life. The line for people
with tickets was sooooooo long but no one cared. We laughed, shared information from pdas and text messages and shouted news out of car windows. We were still in line when they called it for Barack. People went nuts. It was amazing. I'm so glad I was there. Now I'm exhausted.

3. Gawd I love your stories!!! All of you in Illinois, Land of Lincoln and Obama!
Bet you guys got a big jolt when Ohio went for Obama. That was the moment that sealed it for so many of us!!!!
