My partner-in-crime Laura Mansfield and I are currently driving through rush-hour traffic in Austin, Texas, on the way to San Antonio for Barack Obama’s Stand For Change Rally. I’ve gotta say, the traffic here is a little more concentrated than it was in Couer d’Alene, ID.

Laura and I will be covering the event from the press area, while our colleagues Emily Kim and Mehgan Sellers will be covering the event from a crowd perspective. Record numbers are expected; we’ll see if it competes with the Key Arena crowd.

We’ll keep y’all posted throughout the night.
