September 4th at the DNC

We started the day with a pep talk by Howard Dean at breakfast.  

Finally found the Planned Parenthood rally just in time to see Sandra Fluke and Cecile Richards speak.  There was a little confusion about how to get to the rally and many people arrived late.  I was bummed because they ran out of "Yes We Plan" t-shirts.

Yay!  The Convention has begun!

Amber Riley of Glee belted out the National Anthem.

Wolf Blitzer and Ray Suarez were on the floor amongst the people.

An inspirational gathering of Demcoratic Congresswomen.

The Oregon Delegation got GREAT seats this time!  At the 2008 Convention, they were way up to one side.

Sikhs for Obama!  (From the California delegation.)

Wow!  Tammy Duckworth in 2016?  Or Michelle/Hillary?

The Creative Coalition sent Hugh Jackman, John Leguizamo, Patricia Arquette andWyne Knight (Newman on Seinfeld) and I was sitting two rows behind them.  I admit that I didn't recognize any of them on my own - someone had to point them out to me.

Michelle was amazing!  Just right...
