Back from the Obama rally -- his final rally before the election. I...don't have the words. That was amazing. They told us we were about 100,000 strong, standing in a vast, misty field in the middle of Virginia, straining on tiptoe to see the figure at the podium, his voice over the speakers rolling across us in waves...wow. And afterwards, heading back the two mile to where we'd parked the car in the median of the interstate, thousands of people walking together along the empty highway in the midnight darkness, the thick mist through the trees like something off a film set, this surreal experience shared with literally thousands of others...

I don't have the words.

Yes, we can. Yes, we will.

That sounds amazing.

And I hope you're right, I really do. I'm so scared.

Wow. I've so loved hearing all of these stories from all of you that have seen the man speak.
