caucus


I learned something today - what the heck goes on at the Iowa Democratic caucus. If you have no idea either (hint: no one touches a voting machine), check out this piece by the Chicago Tribune.

I decided who was getting my vote almost a year ago when I went to Springfield, IL to hear Barack Obama declare his candidacy. It was absolutely freezing outside, but the enormous crowd was buzzing with this insane energy. I voted for Obama when he was running for the Senate and am thrilled I'll get a chance to send him to the White House.

Whatever you decide, I hope you exercise your right to vote (on Feb. 5 for Illinoisans).
