Obamarama 4: Here They Come

Obamarama 4: Here They Come

8:33 - holding pattern? We have live music again. 8:37 and I think I see politicians gathering in the hotel lobby. Best seats in the house seem to be on the Sheraton balcony though a couple folks prefer the trees. This is the definitive Iowa City location, truly the heart of my city.

Journalist: "There's Obama! Far side of the lobby." He couldn't help but sound excited.

8:44 and it's the state slate card. Patty Judge on the mike, Mauro's here, Denise is here, the Loebsacks too. Patty keeps it brief - re-fires up the crowd. She gives a shout out to Dien: can't wait to see him blogging again.

I'll applaud Mike Mauro from the press riser. "We can't let Ohio and Florida happen in Iowa." Makes the straight ticket pitch.

Denise O'Brien: Clean food, clean water, local control.
