I've never felt as excited or as hopeful about my vote in a presidential election as I did when I lined up at the polling place at 6:30 this morning. Now, as I watch the returns come in, I actually feel kind of choked up. Something really special is happening, something we can all be proud of. I'm so happy my children are getting to see this.
Meanwhile, I guess this guy couldn't find an "I'm a Dumbass" sign for his front yard:

This feeling almost certainly won't last long, but I plan to enjoy it while it lasts. What a great night.

Why did the GOP try to convince voters that Clinton was backing McCain? I even had a robocall about it. Maybe if they picked a real issue (and a better VP), old John might have had a chance.
Jesus for president? I seem to remember a verse about that.
'Wine' is my president. Actually I am really happy Obama won. I was celebrating my last day at my job and celebrating the first African American president. Change is good.
i was speechless, and subdued, and still shocked - but smiled the whole night.
