McCain Rally
As a lot of you might have noticed I left class early on Friday to go see John McCain at FIU. It was a great and new experience for me. It was extrmemly packed and no young people mainly middle aged. On my way walking to the rally (because we had to park far) there was some people (I don't know if you can call it protesting ) with Obama signs and saying vote for Obama which I found pretty interesting and funny. Then they handed us (me and my boyfriend and some of his friends) some signs saying "country first" and I bought a pin that says McCain and Palin which I can't wait to wear around school. Ok, so we got in and man I wish we would have gotten there earlier it was sooooo packed there were not seats available we had to spot out a place to stand so we stood for a little bit and then I spotted out some seats all the way at the top so we made our way over there and then it started people were screaming out of control there were signs everywhere saying thigs such as "cubans for McCain", "Nicas for McCain", and so on for like every country. When it started we were so disappointed because we could not hear anything there were no speakers facing the way were sitting so to be honest I couldn't see or hear the first two speakers but then I know after them Mario Diaz-Ballart came out following him was Jeb Bush, Charlie Crist and then when McCain was about to come out they turned off all the lights and everything. First Lieberman spoke then his wife Cindy and then him. Like I said I couldn't hear that well at all between the speakers being horrible and everyone yelling all I was able to make out was that he was focusing a lot in Obama's plans with Taxes. That was really all I could understand and when Cindy spoke everyone was chanting Cindy very loudly. It was a great experience even though I am a non party affiliated, I think I will be changing that very soon. Well I hope all of you one day will be able to go to a rally they are exactly how they look on T.V. everyone claps after anything they say lol...

I went to that rally that day around that time. McCain was awesome and I wish he won the election. Anyhow, it was fun being there with friends and family.
