Well after the National Mall filled with crowds to witness Barack Obama's inauguration, his star fans began filing in. As the first choir began, we saw Don King, Tyne Daley, Jamie Lee Curtis, former vice presidential candidate Geraldine Ferraro, and Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. arrive. Even the big shots brought blankets to stay warm, but appeared happy despite the chilly breeze. King cheered "only in America," and Jackson talked about the history-making of inaugurating the first black president.
