Obama voter goes to polls in her pajamas.
OMG, I love this.


It was a political day like no other

By ERIN McCLAM, AP National Writer 37 minutes ago

She had a 13-hour window to vote in the Arizona presidential primary, but Mona Reese decided she couldn't wait. She didn't even brush her teeth or change out of her pajamas before leaving home.

She found herself in line before dawn at the fellowship hall of a Methodist church in Phoenix, excitedly waiting to cast a ballot for Sen. Barack Obama. Later she clutched her "I Voted Today" sticker as if it were a winning lottery ticket.

"I literally just woke up," she said, apologizing for tousled hair and a makeup-free face. "I'm so sorry. It's that important. To wake up at 5:45 in the morning to get down here and vote."

3. I wish ...

I wish this was the kind of thing the denizens of DU and elsewhere would find as their focus.

This election -- the primary no less -- has got people fired up and ready to get their asses out and vote, even if it means waking up at 5:45 in the morning.

That's a good thing for Democrats, no matter who you support.
