Barack Obama Will Wynn!
Those were the words in Austin, Texas last night, at a 3,000-person jam packed throwdown hosted by the Travis County Democratic Party. And they were uttered, of course, by Austin's Dem mayor, Will Wynn.
Wynn's one of the CenTex dems we filmed in our latest episode of Hail to the Hustle, the elction vlog from yours truly at the Austin Chronicle, Austin's alt-newsweekly.
In installment uno of the the Hustle's election night two-fer, we count down to Barack o'clock with Mayor Will Wynn, judicial candidate Woodie Jones, and Texas Senator Kirk Watson, at the Travis County Dems' Downtown bash.
Here's part two of the Hustle's e-night action. Want to see what thousands of Texas Democrats spazzing out at an Obama win looks like? It's a barn-raising rattle loud enough to hear a world away!
This is it! The Hustle's partying down with 3,000 rabid Democrats for Barack's historic win, and our season finale – but not before interviews with ladies of the Central Texas House, Donna Howard and Valinda Bolton. Plus: where are the Hustle's previous guests now?
Well, that's it for Hail to the Hustle. Thanks, Kossacks, for taking an interest in Texas politics – like Molly Ivins said, "Good thing we've still got politics in Texas - finest form of free entertainment ever invented."
