tonight starla and i went to go see hilary clinton down at pier 30. we were curious as to what these political rallies were all about and i had never gotten to see someone so important so up close before so it was a good opportunity. we parked about 839420736 miles away and walked along with all kinds of other people. we got there a little before 8 and wedged ourselves in so we could see the stage. there were all kinds of people there and all kinds of the media folks. hilary was late. she was so late that her soundtrack repeated, went through the whole rotation and started over again. we kept saying, 10 more minutes, 5 more minutes, ok 2 more. finally we decided to leave. we stopped to talk to some policemen guarding the door because they said once we left we couldn't come back in. they also told us that 5 people had fainted already while waiting. we weren't suprised. finally we left. an hour and 1/2 after she was supposed to be there. we caught a taxi and the driver was suprised to hear that the event hadn't even started. sure enough though, two blocks in the taxi and here comes the motorcade. this is what we saw on our attempt to experience politics:
