08:00 PM : Barak Obama @ Benaroya Hall, Seattle

Politico Flyered by Rob W.

Wonky, yes. But in politics, a ray of light is worth much more than the all of the fear and loathing which passes today for leadership. Thus the thesis of this Illinois senator's book "The Audacity of Hope". Unfortunately this Seattle reading and booksigning sold out 2500 seats at the Banaroya concert hall in a day rock star-style. What's the fuss? A lot of people want this guy to run for president. Hopefully we'll see him talk in Portland soon. Event details.
