Taylor: Plant trees, get rid of Bushes

Sen. Lena Taylor said that while she did not win her bid for Milwaukee County executive, her run helped "till the soil" in order to help Barack Obama win the White House and Democrats make gains in the state.

Taylor said it was time for change and "to plant some trees and get rid of the Bushes."

Taylor employed fellow Dems to unite around Obama, and work in their local communities to help local Dems pick up seats.

"United we can do it," Taylor said. "We can't take more of the same."

Before her speech, Taylor led convention goers in a chant of "I say demo, you say crat!" for several rounds.
