They are out in small groups. They really look out of place in my neighborhood. I mean, for their entire lifetimes they've been told "don't go to Capitol Hill, there's nothing but trouble there". Yeah, trouble, with a capitol P, and most of the drug trade, prostitution and a mile or so away from where the homeless congregate downtown at night, especially in the winter.

So the doorbell rings and there's this girl there that looks like Lori Singer. Well my neighborhood is mostly gay so that isn't a selling point. I know she's here for McCain and just into her first sentence I interrupt here and say "I already early voted, and for Obama". She didn't look too happy after that but she was courteous enough to thank me for my time.
