Can you believe it?   

We haven’t even had an election yet and yet already work is underway at the U.S. Capitol on the Inaugural platform, where whoever wins the Presidential race will give their speech on January 21, 2013.

It takes that much work to get the Inaugural Platform ready for the Inauguration ceremony.

Last week,  a “First Nail” ceremony was held as the west front of the Capitol as it  was closed off.  That’s four months before Inauguration Day.

We’ll know in six weeks who will be giving that speech, either President Obama or Mitt Romney.
