OK, so there was a rally in Raleigh for Barack Obama, and work schedules did not coincide well with going to the offices over there to pick up some tickets (they were gone in less than two hours). After the rally Tuesday night, the good senator was set to make his way over and up to Martinsville, VA for a Town Hall meeting. On the way, there was a secret stop in Greensboro.Are you serious?!?!!? DAMMIT!!!! Why do we have to WORK????
One of Chris's techs got a photo sent to her on her phone today. It was a fairly good pic of Obama. I asked if that was from Raleigh last night. She said, "No. He's in town. He's in Greensboro."
WHAT?!??!?!?!?!
He popped into the Farmer's Market over on Yanceyville Street in Greensboro to pick up biscuits, zucchini bread, pound cake, bread, tomatoes and peaches, and paid for them all. He also picked up a baby for a photo op.
Man. Rest assured once word leaked out and streets started closing, the Gordons would have raced over to see him.
Next time....

"Senator Obama, we have arranged a side trip to Greensboro, NC at a popular farmer's market."
"GREENSBORO?! That's where that creepy stalker guy Gordon is!"
"It's okay Senator. We have confirmed he is working with no chance of changing his schedule."
"You're sure?"
"Yes, sir. But just in case, we had the secret service sabotage his Jeep."
"Good."
"We even had the local Democratic Headquarters tell him that there were only 5 tickets available for the DNC!!! [laughs]"
"You guys are good. Let's roll."
