Barney Smith, Unlikely Democratic Hero

If you watched the convention on network tv or CNN, et al, you might have missed one of the short speeches done before Obama spoke. These were voters selected by the Obama camp to represent "ordinary Americans". One of them, a guy named Barney Smith, made the crowd extremely happy. I'm willing to bet it's the first time he's ever heard his name chanted by 80,000 people. Go Barney!



PS - Still fuming over Sarah Palin. Just in case you were wondering.
