Obamarama: what needs to happen here

One thing that is immediately noticeable about the crowd here (especially as I'm sitting with a friend who knows everyone) is that nearly every wealthy, influential, well-connected Jew in Boca Raton is here. And so Sen. Obama needs to speak directly to them, reassuring them that he will not forget about their interests (meaning Israel).

Even if this isn't an enormous crowd (I figure 800-ish), it's a crowd that will talk to their friends and neighbors ... and that's where the real impact of Obama's appearance will take place.
