Today I had the privelege of attending the Obama Rally in Dunedin. I got there around 11:45 and there was a line about 2 miles long around Knology Field. We (my cousin and I) ended up getting in but we're very surprised because the field only holds 10000 people. We walked out onto the field and were suprised to see open area to stand right behind his podium. We were pretty much 15 feet from Obama's butt. Unfortunately for me, I began to feel faint from the heat and dehydration so I ended up spending most of his speech time in the medical tent. I did make it out towards the end of the speech and to see him walk out. I didn't get to shake his hand =( Obama spoke about health care and the economy, making a lot of good points about tax cuts to the wealthy and his plans to bring back a fair economy. I wish I would of been able to hear more of his speech, but feel so lucky to have experienced this history in the making.
