Shawn Johnson doing the Pledge right now

[maseman]

She's so cute!

[maseman]

1. Glad she got gold and glad she is a Dem

[mvd]

3. Indeed!

Too bad she's not old enough to vote.

[maseman]

5. 2 more years!

[elkston]

6. Oh to vote...Um yes, to vote, exactly! n/t

[crimsonblue]

7. my thoughts exactly...

but Nastia is 18. :D

[elkston]

10. And A. Sacromone is even older. :)

[mvd]

12. Is she a Dem?

Haven't heard or read anything. Often Olympic athletes turn out to be Repukes, so glad to hear Shawn isn't.

[elkston]

14. I have no idea, actually. I just like looking at her. :)

[mvd]

19. Ehhh.. I'm 32 - still young, but can't go there with Shawn

16 is just too young for me to get those feelings. But she is adorable and was a great story.

[mmonk]

21. She's not quite old enough to vote

but yes. She has been a supporter of Hillary Clinton.

22. Awesome!

Do you know about Natasia? or Alicia Sacramone or Thomas Finchum or David Boudia? Those are the four that I totally followed this year with rapt attention.

Edit:
Oh and if you know about Johnny Weir, Jeffery Buttle, Sasha Cohen, and Evan Lysacek then I would LOVE to know because I follow figure skating even when it isn't the Olympics.

Thanks :)

:hug:

[mmonk]

24. No.

I know alot about Kristi Yamaguchi (and Bret and family) since they lived close to me. But on the olympic team, not too many of them, just that info on Shawn.

[maseman]

13. Oh you..

:spank:

[darius15]

[elkston]

4. She's awesome. :)

[goodgd_yall]

15. 4 ft. 9 in.

That's shorter than I thought!

[d_b]

9. i missed it =/

[goodgd_yall]

11. She is a beautiful young woman

Nice shots of her as the Star Spangled Banner was sang.

[Cha]

16. She wasn't wearing those PEACE earrings for nothing

when she was being interviewed by brokawf.

This is fantastic and she's from Iowa!

17. My grandson who is 17 is going to marry her!

Of course he has to meet her first, but he's in love. :loveya:
