A little pitter-pat for Marvin

[sandnsea]

I forgot all about how exciting this is going to be for him. At least I hope there is some job for him in the White House. Great pic of him and the new boss, on election night.

We still love ya Marvin! :loveya:

1. Eh, OT, but congratulations for your second Democratic Senator.

5. Thank you

It feels all warm and fuzzy, knowing you live in a state that's 99% sane! Dem Governor, state legislatures, 2 senators, 4 of 5 Congressman. Merkley is a pretty good guy too, he got a lot done here and isn't going to be wishy-washy like Salazar and some others.

:woohoo:

7. we have two here in Wisconsin, but

it only seems like one-and-a-half. Sen. Kohl doesn't say much or stick his neck out very much. But Feingold makes up for it--hes a gem.

8. You also have a close Obama tie - Michelle's brother is the coach of Oregon State

2. and all because he met JK at a surf shop

and they started talking about their common interest in non political things. i think Marvin was not really into politics either at the time.

3. Did you see Marvin on TV the night of...

...Bill Clinton's campaigning with him? Marvin was EVERYWHERE ! :)

4. I saw him in person

a week before the election, he came over to me and gave me a big hug. Then I said let me take a pic of you for the JK bloggers and he grabbed my camera and put his arm around me and took a picture of the two of us. He is a genuine sweetheart.

6. You lucky person! I only met him once...

...when Senator Kerry was in Ca. campaigning for Angelides for governor. The same trip as the Pepperdine "Faith and Politics" speech.

He was very friendly and gracious...just a regular VERY nice guy. Ah, memories... :7
