Boise Mayor Dave Bieter, who spoke for Obama at the Ada County caucus tonight, said he wanted to lead a cheer that wouldn’t be heard in Iowa or anywhere else, a “uniquely Boise” cheer. He also used that cheer at the Fiesta Bowl. The reason it’s so unique: It’s in Basque. “Gora Obama,” Bieter shouted, directing the crowd to shout back, “Gora!” In the Basque language, “gora” means exaltation, or “hurray.”
