Obama's Nomination Speech

This part of an ABC news story sums up my feelings the night of Obama's speech.

Looking around the filled stadium at people dancing, cheering, and applauding, Texas state repesentative and delegate Mike Villarreal had tears in his eyes.

"I want to be able to tell my kids I was here when a black man and a white man got elected to lead our party," Villarreal said, "And I'm part of that for them."

Villarreal described moments in history you read about in textbooks and, taking a minute to collect himself he said, "This is one of them."

Sorry to get tears on your keyboard, but it was an emotional moment for anyone reflecting on how far we have come as a nation with this act.
