Well, the country made history last night. And no it was not for the most people shown sobbing on camera in a two hour window. I would be interested in that tally though. I couldn't get Josh to sob uncontrollably so I was a bit disappointed. I hope history was made with people voting with their minds and not with their hearts. I truly hope that Obama can bring everything to the table that he has promised throughout this election. We shall see if this will indeed be change. Will he do what he promises? In the end they are both politicians and I hate politicians and trust them about as far as I can throw them. Someday, I'd love to see someone running for president donate all their contributions to the less fortunate. That would get my vote. Although this election did get someone near and dear to me to actually participate in the election process. I consider the inciting texts and his voting turn out a victory. Now we won't have to hear "he's not my president" anymore. Thank god.
I was very very impressed with McCain's speech last night as well. Classy guy and great speech. Today is a new day and he is right, we are all Americans. Sadly, I don't think we will ever be rid of all the bickering and fighting b/t the parties.
Another disappointment, Nebraska has to deal with Mike Johanns again. I think that might have been what put me over the edge as far as my foul mood was concerned last night. The guy is a sleeze bag. Hey, Tom if you give me $10,000 of the STAN associations money when I run for governor I won't forget it. I'll move you up six ranks and put you in charge. I should have just wrote a letter asking what $10,000 would get me and if it would be possible for me to get Col. of the state patrol. And Lee Terry is sadly still with us.
On a side note, I am sick of losing games at home in shuffleboard. Beyond sick of it. I wanted to smack the guy for saying "you're a great little shooter girl" I made some un characteristic mistakes that were costly and we still took both teams we lost to down to the wire. There are no moral victories though and I'm ultra competitive and it pisses me off. That is the bottom line.

I guess only time will tell if this election will give us a leader who really makes a difference and is not just another typical politico.
Is it wrong of me to be thinking Tuesday night, as I watched the coverage, that Chicago looked damn good? It was a beautiful autumn evening, the skyline looked great, the people conducted themselves properly (they are STILL deconstructing it all, btw)
