A highlight! Got in the elevator this morning and struck up a conversation with a nice young lady who turned out to be Don Segelman's daughter!




Then later this afternoon, walked by this table:




Loved this area in the exhibit hall:






An all too common site (they're everywhere! they're everywhere!):







And then of course the highlight of the day was THE MAN!!








Before Clinton spoke, there were several union leaders and other politicians who spoke. One of them said the media is trying to figure out how to do what YOU do.

Another guy told us "Silence your cell phones and have your birth certificates on the table"

Brad Miller, a congressman from NC, said something really neat: "We have to prevent the masters of the universe from running with scissors again".

Then Bill Clinton took the stage. He gave a terrific speech! He started out by saying he has been on a lot of planes lately. That got a round of applause. He said he reads a lot of things he prints out and he realized he is printing out articles from blogs more and more all the time. He said he likes blogs because you don't have to pretend you're not on one side or another.

Then he said when you are an ex-president people don't care what you think unless your wife is secretary of state and you screw up.

There was a heckler. He stood up and yelled something about DODT. Clinton told the guy he needed to go to one of those health care meetings. Then he did talk about DADT and thanked the guy for bringing it up.

I'll post more about his speech later.
