Well folks,
Life in O'bama land is now in full swing with constant canvassing, phone banking, data entry and mass mailings to name but a few of the recent activities. It's a whole new type of beast here in the Midwest to what I was use to in the Pacific Northwest (or the liberal Northwest) with a near 50/50 Democrat/Republican split . I shall be hitting up the Irish bars in the next few days to discuss the next leader of the free world over a pint of stout with some Irish-Americans!
Anyways folks who watched John McCain's speech tonight at the RNC saw a compassionate man who "hates wars". Hmmmm...... Also you could see a lots of idiots in the arena shouting "USA, USA, USA". I wonder how many of these fools have passports and know anything about the outside world? 10%? McCain's VP pick Sarah Palin only recently acquired her first passport and went to Canada. Nice. That's real foreign policy experience. No wait, as Cindy McCain said "Sarah has foreign policy experience cause Alaska is very close to Russia". Pathetic. Rant over.
Will be back in Seattle this weekend for a whirlwind visit. Hope to see as many folks as possible before I flee to the Cleve again.
Back tomorrow

Glad they let you into the DNC, though looks like you got the "2 Mile High" cheap seats! Conor, I'm totally impressed with your dedication to the campaign. Every voter counts (especially in Ohio), and you're going to turnout a bunch of Ohians with your Irish charm and gregariousness. Way to represent Seattle, the USA, Ireland, and The World in Cleveland! GObama!

ps. Tried to post this on your blog but failed. Didn't feel up for getting a new user id and pass.
Conor my man! Keep up the good work in Cleveland! Can't wait to hear more about your conversion of those rusty Buckeyes. Palin is a fuckin' hoot. I love it. Check out the stranger article.

Well-written blog, mate.
I honestly thought you were messing when you said you were backing Obama. Loved the Leinster Leader article!
