Nothing like a personal observation from the Fever Swamp. Thank Gina for this one:

I always knew it would be big. How could it not be? The writing was on the wall when we started this adventure a year and a half ago. The Republicans were still in charge, America’s path was not going to change.

But the progressive blogosphere was going to continue to grow. And as dark as the days would become, before us would still be a fabulous opportunity.

I knew it would be big, but I honestly had no idea what big would look like.

Big looks like over 120 of our experts coming together to share their knowledge. Big looks like over 150 traditional media reporters trying to understand who we are. Big looks like over 1000 attendees from all over the country coming together, a good percentage of whom were volunteers doing the work to make the YearlyKos Convention successful.

Big looks like, or rather feels like, the hopeful determination that defined YearlyKos. It was incredible and overwhelming, and I haven’t wrapped my mind around it yet.

Looks like their minds were wrapped all right. Heh!(db)
