Morning In America

I went to my polling station this morning and it was awesome to see such a huge turnout. To give you an idea, I got there at 6 AM, and there was already a substantial line. Here’s a photo of what it looked like as I as was leaving, a little over an hour later.

I love the sense of excitement in the air today, not just from young liberal types, but everyone — co-workers, radio hosts, passers-by — it’s been a long time since voting or participating in the process has felt to mean this much. The energy from people who support Obama and McCain is infectious, as is the support by those who choose Nader, or will be writing in Paul.

Even corporate America is pitching in. Check out all the free stuff you can get for voting: Coffee, Sex Toys, Ice Cream, Donuts, Champagne, Fried Chicken, and more fried chicken.
