Well That Went Pretty Well






Obama crushes in NC by a margin (14 % pts) i hadn't allowed myself to imagine last night, and nearly takes Indiana as well -- a great night for the campaign though Hillary claims to be pressing on. Obama seems energized compared to the tired man (who can still give a great speech) we saw in Chapel Hill last week. The primary results are a great cap to a fantastic week of rock in our town...Destroyer, American Music Club, and then our two shows with Arcade Fire, the second of which (Carrboro, where we go to the farmers market) was especially rocking. A beautiful day, beautiful crowd, beautiful rock...beautiful primary result!
