My wife and I walked in to a bar the other night and every person in there, except for her and I was a black woman. Turns out it was a "women for Obama" function. We were invited in with open arms, they were so nice to us and were having a blast. When I told the head of the function my story about canvasing in Cleveland in '08 and then going to inauguration, she gave me a big hug and tried to get me to sign up to volunteer. I politely declined, but it was a really nice atmosphere. They were representing the President well.
