Last night I went to an Obama get together. I can’t say that I am “for” Obama, but rather that I am keeping an open mind. I wonder why I am not excited about any of the candidates, like I was for Kucinich 4 years back. But back to the gathering last night. It was held at Cafe Akroteri in Bellingham. I’ve not been there before and I liked the ambiance. And the food looked good. We should go there for dinner sometime soon.
I didn’t know what to expect from the meeting. The Democrati debate was on tv and for the first hour we all watched it – hard to do as the noise level was high. Afterwards, there was discussion about the Washington Caucus on Feb 9th. Since I had been to one 4 years ago, I was familiar with the procedure, but since it is a rather complex process, it was good to hear the specifics again. There was no talk about Obama, no one trying to convince anyone to support him, no one asking for donations. Perhaps Stephanie, the person in charge, believed that all who where there were already supporting him. Perhaps I was the only one undecided.
