VA, Charlottesville, lines around the polling place, bustling D table ouside, empty R table...
A great, great mood in line this morning. Obama supporters happy, talkative, a few McCain supporters feeling downtrodden. My neighbor was there, he's a McCain voter and was glum...seems you could spot them in the crowd. I told him that we live in a beautiful place, the weather is great, and the colors are at their peak, you win some and you lose some, and to give our guy a chance. He smiled and thanked me...

Go vote!
