I live in a relatively well-off section of Ft. Wayne, IN.  It's certainly urban, but it's not a place that has seen much in the way of Obama activity.  The signs are here, but badly outnumbered...  I was heartened when I got to the poll this morning at 6:02.  There was already a line of about 40 people, many talking happily about voting and slipping in last minute Obama/Long-Thompson (IN Dem governor candidate) references.  There were a lot of folks wearing blue shirts too, and only a few red (Yes, people wear blue shirts more than red in general, but let me be happy about it!)  It was a wonderful thing to see, and gives me a lot of confidence regarding the state.  I don't know if it will actually go Obama's way, but the possibility is heartening.

By the time I got out of the precinct 45 minutes later (only 3 voting machines) the line was at least twice as long, still largely populated by blue shirters.
