It was so interesting to read because it's true.

We waited in what became an uncomfortably warm room, packed standing closely together for 2.5 hours before she spoke, with nothing but music to entertain us. I didn't see a single person around me complain (except for my husband...I think he was the only one complaining about how sweaty and gross he felt, HAHA). It was pretty amazing.

The entire time we were waiting everyone around me was waving their flags (they gave us flags), holding up signs, and chanting things like, "Hill-a-ry!" and "It's time for a woman in the White House!". Everyone next to me looked excited and happy to be there, even at the 2.5 hour mark.

I've never seen anything like it.
