He gave a beautiful acceptance speech tonight. And while I am sorry that Sen. McCain did not win, I can see the appeal in this man by so many. You can see in his eyes and face how humbled he is by this achievement. He has undoubtedly brought hope to millions....and there is nothing wrong with that.

God speed to our new President.

Brava, Babe! Brava! You are a good lady. And FWIW, I'm confident you won't be sorry long.

very nice of you to acknowledge the look in his eyes. he's confident but not arrogant. He truly believes what he says. He's not making a sale with his words. John McCain is a good man indeed and Im quite sure Obama realizes the constant attacks was just politics and I expect these 2 gentlemen will get along just fine in their common pursuit of changing the course of this country for the better.

Buzz, I like you too. And that's not "crap". lol

Fly high and soar my forum friend.....and celebrate.

Dear Lord thank you for what you have bestowed upon us and for testing us.

I am very happy for what you have decided.

I am very happy that I do not have to be worried about saying "what" and worrying that I am racist anymore.

I am very happy and very fond of being friends with people who are not my color or creed and being able to talk to them without offending them.

I also like making fun of myself and calling half black people blacks or whites depending upon whoever I deem fit to offend.

Thank you for that because it is very fun!

Lord, this will be a very interesting time and I put all of my faith in you to guide me.

I have utmost faith on how to act and I hope and pray that you have the best possible that I can also share with you in order from here on out!

Thank you Dear God for allowing me the ability to vote and be a part of this thing we all call a democracy and please steer me in the right direction the second that you think this is unfit.

Thank you again and I owe you a million more.

One song...

Lets hope this country can pull together, especially in Congress. It's time to support a new administration and I hope and pray that bickering in the House doesn't take place because if it does, change will come really slow. I voted McCain also but will support our new president Barrack Obama.

I was a bit indifferent for who won, as I was not a fan of either. I did for vote for Obama though.

I am just glad that we had a decisive victory, we need unity in America, unity that consists of more than just blind flag waving out of fear. We need unity of attitude, unity of spirit. Unity that is not based on hating people "over there". We don't need to put a boot up anyone's ass anymore. We need to keep our workboots on, and keep the wheels turning over here.

I have been lucky enough to be employed in an industry that has not been affected, for-profit education, (knock on wood) by the current economy. I tithe to my place of spiritual inspiration, and give back to my community both in service and monetarily. I patronize as many local businesses as possible. And pray for all of my brothers and sisters every day.

Here's to making it happen in '09!!!
