True, V, true, and thank you for that good thought. But the Republicans actually try and win wars these days. Can that be said of the Democrats in this time?

I don't know how to describe my feelings - I know we still have a very tough road to walk to recover as a nation, but I feel hope that it can be accomplished now. As long as everyone who voted for him will continue their enthusiasm and efforts we can all have hope.
McCain gave a good concession speech but I'm glad there is no chance of Palin in the oval office.

Oh, duh, I did have the nagging suspicion I was stating the obvious.

It's late. What can I say.

"Rosa sat so Martin could walk. Martin walked so Barack could run. Barack ran so our children could fly."

the guy is simply -- presidential. he has the potential to be a great president.

I haven't been as excited at anything political since Nixon resigned.

You know what makes me irritated? All the people out there saying they are going to leave the United States now that Barack Obama is president.

Seriously? Then gtfo, now.

HungLikeJesus 11-05-2008 12:17 AM

I'm leaving the US now that Barack has been elected president.

I'm going to Mexico.


But not until Thanksgiving.

And again at Xmas.
