4. What used to be First Street here in Austin is named after him.
Sarah can come visit. Maybe she'll get run over crossing Cesar Chavez Street.

7. This is one that needs to be thrown back in their faces immediately
It's begging for a response, something that will remind people what community organizers do, what community means, and how out of touch the Republicans tonight are.

8. From their perspective he is an Agitator
Similar to MLK. Someone had a post last night that applause stopped when MLK came on during the video. The religious right is going to be the hardest group to get on board next year. Not sure how to turn them, as a group they are hate filled and selfish. Saying that I have some friends that are reachable, maybe picking off enough of the moderates will embarrass the others.

9. If more information comes out about her character, ie. affairs, abuse of power, not putting her kids
1st, etc. they may come around. I've heard a lot of my suburban, white 30-40ish republican friends say they are voting for Obama. (and this would be a 1st for them)
