I just got back from a Minnesota for Obama meeting at Bar Abeline in the lovely area of Uptown, Minneapolis, and the eighth superedelegate from my state has announced for Obama.
Nancy Larson, a silver-haired, kindly woman, had very nice things to say about Hillary Clinton, but noted to the packed restaurant/bar that only Obama could bring so many people out on a Sunday on one of the nicest days so far this year to just get ideas on how we can help the campaign and really bring change to Washington and the country.
Mayor R.T. Rybak, who is my personal choice to take on Tim Pawlenty next time around for Governor, addressed the crowd as well; he noted that we're going to continue taking on trumped up attacks like the "bitter" issue, so we might as well get used to it... but he also said that we can't let it get us down or stop getting out our message.
