69. crowd is mostly white, Richardson gave a WHOPPER of a speech
at first pointing our racism against Hispanics, then going on about how Obama's speech moved him, and then railed against Republicans, called for Democratic Unity, made 'buddy' comments about Obama - both with really big smiles on their faces - great photo for the papers tomorrow!, hugged Obama, and said, "I just asked Senator Obama if I talked too much, and he said, talk some more, so I will" He got choked up, and it was AWESOME!

the video will be up soon, I'm sure.
