I attended the Obama rally in Columbus today. The weather was nice, the energy from the crowd of mainly Obama supporters was uplifting, and this was the first time I’ve seen a sitting president. (I saw candidate Obama, and ex-presidents Ford and Clinton, whose hand I shook). This was the first time I saw security guys on the roofs of surrounding buildings. It wasn’t all positive though. The whole story after the Fleur De Kos.
