Grant Park last night was incredible. I must be getting old, but I haven't stayed out past 2 in ten years....

It was unbelievable. The most touching moment, for me personally, was when I was walking down past the Palmer House, which is an old line hotel (and where Mailer stayed and wrote the Siege of Chicago in 1968). As the news came on that it was official, I a two bellhops stop, put down the luggage he was carrying, put his hand over his heart, and started to cry. He must have been about 70 -- old enough to remember 1968.
