Obamamania sweeps the pre-school set (DKos)
"I'd like to take a small point of personal privilege in this diary (of course, what is a diary if not expressing personal privilege? But I digress) to share a quick story from our home yesterday evening.

The quote in the title is from the oldest of the two pre-schoolers in our house. Early in the afternoon I tuned into the teevee broadcast to catch Obama's speech.

Fast forward to after the dinner hour and some tinkering around with toys, etc. The kids disappeared into another room for a while. With preschoolers you get a little worried when things get quiet so we offered a gentle call to make sure they were still alive.

"Just a second, Obama is speaking" was the reply. This was quickly followed with a command to the younger sibling..."Help get the stadium filled".

That certainly piqued enough curiosity to go take a look in the other room."

OMG, you have to see the pics: http://www.dailykos.com/storyonly/2008/7/25/93510/1800/555/556771
