And now the real games start... This one started about 45 minutes late.
Joe Biden and the 3 people who still work for his team all showed up perfectly on time. All of us were in our seats, popcorn in hand, waiting to watch the first tournament game. TV cameras were set, Dick Vitale and Tim Russert were in the broadcast booth for the play-by-play while Anderson Cooper and Wolf Blitzer were reporting from the floor. We were all waiting... and waiting.
Finally, a rustling in the eves! Some flash bulbs went off, chants arose from the crowd and the man, Barak Obama himself, could be seen. The sound was deafening. Obama marched into the arena followed by a long train of celebrities and ordinary folk alike.
Joe Biden stood to address the crowd, but was almost pushed off the stage by the throng of people still entering from the Obama camp. He was caught in a sea of people and trying to swim against the current.
Obama calmly walked to the stage, apologized for being late (he couldn't find parking) and started one of his patented "FIRE UP!; READY TO GO!" chants with the crowd. He then started to say something about "change", but no one was listening... We all saw her - Oprah Winfrey was in the building. The excitement was palpable!
Barak introduced Oprah and the crowd went crazy!!!!! It was like a Beetles concert, only, with excitement and screaming.
We think Joe Biden just slipped out of the arena after Oprah was introduced. Nobody noticed, nobody cared.
Final: Obama-Winfrey crushes Biden
