Kerry Pitches for Obama in Tacoma's Hilltop

Here are some pictures I received from Tacoma blogger/Realtor Jacob Rose from the Obama Rally.  Thanks Jake.









Reminder:

Tacoma Urbanist commenter and political insider "NEAL" reminds of two political events tomorrow (Saturday) in Tacoma:


Okay, so here's the skinny:

There were about 125+ people at an Obama event today that LITERALLY was not confirmed until 1 p.m yesterday afternoon.

That, is a good turnout (I limit it to 125 because that was the capacity of the room).

The caucus training fro the Obama campaign will be at 1 p.m. tomorrow. Good times.   The caucus training is at Commencement Bay Coffee Company.

In the spirit of equal time, the Clinton supporters will have a rally / energy forum at 1 p.m. at King's Books.

I'll be at both events ... though late to one.

The TNT has done a great job given the timelines of the announcements to people who are in the know.

More to come next week after Super Tuesday ... that's a guarantee.
Should be interesting.  Keep the photographs of the political events coming.

AMG. Don't wash you hand for the next year!

I will have to say I liked that both campaigns choose nice local places to go.
