The Senator from New York, former First Lady of the United States and Presidential Candidate was in San Jose, stumping for votes prior to the California Primaries (during "Super Tuesday") next week.
I've never heard the Senator speak live. The organizers said they were expecting 18,000 for this event. It looked like, and especially "sounded" like more.
Yeah--I didn't get to shake her hand or get a picture with here. Darn secret service and all that...
I did--however--share the platform with one of my mentors from the San Francisco Chronicle, Deanne Fitzmaurice... She won the Pulitzer Prize a a years ago.
I also ran into--literally-speaking, more than a few colleagues from when I was a full-time press photograher...
The best part--I didn't even have a press pass for this even, 'cause I didn't exprect to be shooting!

As a registered "Independent" (the much-coveted swing-voter), I was impressed by her speech. Perhaps it was her words and the combination of energy of the crowd. Speaking of which, she really had the crowd going--so yes, it was a good speech.
It's funny--because I was on the "secondary riser." The main riser--with all the video people and the rest of the photographers are actually behind Senator Clinton!
And yes--it was crowded. Once I was in my spot, I was "stuck!" Couldn't jump down (people below me) and couldn't move left, right or back!
Thanks again for looking and commenting--and for the !
