Just in from the John Edwards/John Mellencamp concert. Wow! What a night. I don't know how many people were there officially, but watch our race fans... you may be the second biggest crowd!
Everybody who was anybody was there! There was the concert by John Mellencamp followed by an introduction by Mari Culver, First Lady of Iowa, then the Edwards family was introduced. There was Wallace and Bobbie Edwards, parents of John Edwards, Cate Edwards the eldest daughter, Emma Claire and Jack the two younger children and John and Elizabeth. Earlier in the day John's sister had also been at the phone bank, but I didn't see her on stage.
John Mellencamp sang among other things 'This is my country' and when John Edwards came to the microphone, he was fired up and ready to go. I will have videos of it later as I recorded it in it's entirety, but that will be tomorrow. Tomorrow promises to be a good day... Tomorrow is Iowa caucus day!
Here is a video that I got up earlier today which I recorded yesterday (New Year's Day) in Fort Dodge, Iowa.
Here is the link if you need it.
