This Historic Day
I’m heading to a Democratic Party event tonight to watch Obama’s historic convention speech. Photos and more tomorrow, but tonight, let’s enjoy history being made.

Caucusing in Kansas: Aussie Football to Iowa’s Croquet
Last night, I was swept up in a sea of change in the most unlikely of places. Suburban Johnson County, a diehard, Republican area where Democrats rarely fare well. But last night, something amazing happened. We caucused.
I was up in Iowa and attended a caucus there. Yesterday, I caucused in Kansas, and the contrast between the two couldn’t have been greater.
One was lightly attended, full of mostly white, suburbanites, with an Obama precinct team of about 5 people, and ended in less than an hour.
The other was hectic, with long lines, horrendous overcrowding, lengthy waits, and diverse, multi-ethnic crowd, and over 20 Obama volunteers.
More on the flip.
