Utah for Obama is hosting a “Yes We Did” Celebration party to watch Barack Obama’s Victory Speech tonight at SkyBox Grille at the Gateway Mall at 7:30 PM.
After Saturday’s decision to finalize the Michigan and Florida delegates, 2,118 is the magic number of delegates to reach the Democratic Nomination. As of this writing, Barack Obama needs 31.5 delegates to get there. Tonight, after the votes are counted in Montana and South Dakota, the last few names of Super Delegates who will vote for Senator Obama at the DNC in August will be announced, and Senator Obama will make his victory speech.
According to my sources, his speech will happen at 8:15 MDT, just after the polls close, so make sure that you arrive by 8!.
This campaign is a movement of the people, and I cannot think of a more appropriate title for tonight’s event than “Yes we did”. Barack won this nomination because of you, and me, and literally millions of other people’s efforts. It’s not just Barack who won, it’s all of us. We have more work to do, but tonight it’s time to celebrate what we’ve accomplished.
And tomorrow, we can get on to the work of showing John McCain for what he really is – 4 more years of Bush.

Woo Hoo! 16 more delegates. I hope the unpledged delegates hold off now and let Montana and SoDak push him over!
Have you ever thought of doing something extraordinary so Obama will notice you?
“Andrea”, “Andrea”, “Andrea”. Have you ever thought about leaving so many sarcastic comments that one day I will be bound to respond?
Sarcastic? I wasn’t being sarcastic. I was being a smart ass.
