A View from Behind

Tonight was the opportunity of a lifetime.

Three other fellow bloggers and I decided we wanted to get to the Hillary Clinton Rally early to get a great spot.  Well, great spot is quite an understatement - seeing that we were able to sit right behind the stage and meet with the Clinton family after the rally.

In addition to the extreme coolness of being able to be right in the thick of things, it was quite exciting to view a political rally from a candidate's eyes.

The early bird really does get the worm or, in our case, the best seat in the house!

Among the attendees, some notables were Ted Danson and wife Mary Steenburgen, General Will Clark, and Madeleine Albright.

In the closing hours on the campaign trail in Iowa, candidates are most certainly reaffirming their messages and Clinton was no different.  She insisted that as President, she will work for universal healthcare, veteran's benefits, improving education, investing in alternative fuels in addition to others.

As I tuck away my autographed material and enjoy the few drops of excitement, I anticipate the change of events with tomorrow's caucus.
