19th and Valencia – Dancing in the Streets

Great video by Matt McAlister of the spontaneous Valencia outbreak of Obamptimism.

Dancing in the streets. Literally.

I love how it just builds into a complete frenzy at the end. That’s 8 years worth of pent up dancing, folks — it’s like we are that town in Footloose. (Inserting obligatory and horrible Kevin Bacon visual pun. Thank you.)

Tonight we dance. But tomorrow we work. There is some serious heavy lifting to be done. (Never mind undoing the damage done if Prop h8te actually passes.)

UPDATE — More street dancing video:

• Divisidero
• More of Valencia

UPDATED UPDATE — Star Spangled Banner on Valencia. Damn.
