His wife is an Australian recently naturalized citizen, participating in her first US election. She was at (at least) 3 Obama house parties, so I was not suprised when she showed up to caucus for Barack. But, lo and behold, who should walk in with her? The husband, the lifelong GOPer, coming over to caucus for Obama. That's the reason we MUST win, and the reason we WILL win. Nobody, but nobody, can bring this country together like Obama can.

I haven't seen anything like this in politics since 1968. Only this is better, because Barack is going to win, and he's got secret service protection. I put the final delegate count tonight at closer to 845-833 Obama. That's based on raw state totals only, except for here in Minnesota, where I do have district level totals and find that it's going to split 48-24 Obama, matching the 67%-32% overall percentage.
