Yes We Can (wear matching t-shirts)!
We went to the Obama/Biden thingy in Dublin on Saturday with Kristen and Dawn and their tweens. Yes, we wore matching homemade t-shirts. No, it’s not lame. It’s cool! The kids were bored, but they were so, so good and I know someday they’ll thank us for dragging them there. Lena already told me she wanted to show her future children the “on the road to change” sign that she was able to wave. Awwwwwwwww!
Our t-shirts were cool, thanks to Kristen, but this guy’s t-shirt was the best:

Of course I had to get a picture! I don’t even care that I look like a dumbass in this photo (I am a dumbass, so I should look like one). I’m posting it because the t-shirt says, “Michelle for first lady.” Word.
Dawn has a full report here. Kristen has a bunch of pictures here.
My report is that it was awesome. That’s all. Sixty-five days, people. Get your people to the polls.



I’m so glad you got to go, and that you were able to share the experience with your girls! Our brush with John McCain was not nearly as cool – instead of being energized by the rest of the crowd, I was fighting off homicidal urges – but I’m still happy that we went. Hopefully we get to even the score and see Obama at some point.
I love the Michelle shirt. I did not see any Cindy shirts at the Straight Talk Express stop.
