A second presidential inauguration is simply never as big a deal as the first inauguration. But President Obamaโs victory in the 2012 election is still a moment to savor. Town Hallโs inauguration viewing party is arguably better than being at the inauguration in person; itโs heated, for one thing, and coffee and โlight breakfastโ items will be available for purchase. Better still: You get to watch someone who is not Mitt Romney take the oath of office while in the company of other exultant Seattleites for the low, low price of free.
