A Very Stirring Moment At The DNC

This moment where former Arizona Congresswoman Gabby Giffords lead the Pledge Of Allegience at the Democratic National Convention was so powerful, I choked up watching it in a wrap on my DVR.  Giffords survived a gunshot wound to her head just a year and a half ago.

That's right, "it's go big or go home" this weekend as I conclude my quest to be a delegate at the Democratic National Convention in Charlotte.  Delegates from across Washington's 8th Congressional District will convene at Issaquah High School at 1:00 Sunday and pick delegates to the National.  The delegates to the Congressional Caucus were picked at legislative caucuses, which were made up of delegates picked at the precinct caucus's.  Are you following me?  In a nutshell, the selected delegates will travel to Charlotte to nominate Barak Obama for president and Joe Biden for Vice President.  It will be quite an adventure if I can just get enough votes.
