I just stepped off stage, so I'll keep this quick.

Thank you -- that was an honor.

We know what we're up against -- a mountain of outside spending and a campaign willing to do whatever it takes to beat President Obama and drag this country backward.

But no one on that convention floor is intimidated. We're ready.

If you're feeling the energy, too, pitch in $X or more to keep the momentum going:

Tonight, there's one phrase that keeps running through my head: Estamos unidos. We are united.

It's become a sort of rallying cry for Latinos for Obama groups across the country, and every time I hear it I think about how perfectly it defines this campaign and this president.

When Senator Obama was the keynote speaker back in 2004, he said this: "It is that fundamental belief -- I am my brother's keeper, I am my sister's keeper -- that makes this country work. It's what allows us to pursue our individual dreams, yet still come together as a single American family: E pluribus unum, out of many, one."

In other words, estamos unidos.
