TexDem is sleeping in after a late night at the convention so I'm filling in this week. For those of you who follow my diaries you know that they are usually centered around photographs, either show casing pictures taken by the White House photography staff lead by Pete Souza or sharing my own photographs. I figured for Mojo Friday this week I'd stick with what I do best and make this a photo diary as well. The following pictures are from various sources and are some of my favorite pictures from the Democratic Convention.
Enjoy.

On with the games!!
Mojo Friday Guidelines
- If you comment you have to recommend all comments. (in order to receive mojo you have to give mojo. It's only good mojo manners.)
- Everything you say may be taken as a joke (so if you ask a question, expect a silly answer)
- You must recommend the diary (and pimp it unapologetically)
- You don't have to comment to recommend.
- You can't steal my idea (right, like that ain't goin' to happen)
- Please, no pictures or YouTubes until after 300 comments. Now, after 100, use a little common courtesy and be responsible in the number.
- Mojo mojo mojo mojo, mojo mojo mojo.
- TexDem (that's me) is not bound by the guidelines. Heh
Mojo Friday Goals
- At least 300 different commenters and 1000 comments by 1:30 PM EST and 1500 by 5:00 PM EST Friday Night that it's posted.
- 100 recommends for each comment, at least.
- Stay on Recommend List at least five hours (this requires some strategic planning by you guys, refer to guideline #3)
- At least 200 diary recommends. 300 would be better, spread the word.
- And always, fun fun fun.
- Have at least 75% average participation rate as seen here in the Mojo Friday Postgame Show by Woodtick and bjedward.
- Have at least 30 kossacks over 90% participation.
- Overload the servers with recommends, not to mention dominate Top Comments Mojo list. (we do tend to mess with the site with all of our recommends at one time)(also, to dominate the Top Comments Top Mojo we need at least 50 comments with over 200 recommends, see guideline B)
- That's enough for now. (Have a suggestion? Post it.)
