Yes we all had a great night and we all witnessed history that many of us put in many hours to help make. I have spent the last month knocking on hundreds of doors and making Lord knows how many calls (which is why I have not been on here much lately).
I would like like to ask all of us to do what President Obama would have us do and that is to take victory with humility. It is time to put away the signs, take off the stickers and not "rub it in" on the other side. Remember that President Obama says we are all Americans and we all have to get along to the best extent we can.
I know it is tempting to say the other side did and I agree. In fact I still see "W" stickers on cars. But I think President Obama would say that he wants his supporters to rise above that petty crap. And we should do as he wants.

With his evisceration of the Constitution, gunboat diplomacy and funneling of the national treasury to his military contractor cronies I think Bush is much more deserving of the Fuhrer title. Sieg Heil Bush! May you rot in hell for all the suffering you've inflicted on the world.
Many of us saw thru Bush the corporate wh@re and war criminal from the very beginning. I think we're entitled to a little gloating after the rest of the country got on board, after 8 years of Bush the National Nightmare. I think we're entitled to gloat after a complete repudiation of the murderous policies that we've been opposing all along. I think we're entitled to gloat for being proven right for opposing the destructive political and economic policies of the extreme right.
No sane person would ever just "allow" a leader to do "whatever" without standing up and saying something about it.
This idea that Obama "supporters" will blindly follow him off the edges of the earth is silly and unwarranted. We voted him in because we want him to make things better. Voting someone in doesn't mean the supporters blindly agree, in advance, with every single thing the person in power may do. I think we all need to relax a little around here.
I'm glad Obama won and I will shout it from the moutain tops. Free at Last, Free at Last, Thank God almighty we are free at last!!! Finally, free of the Bush administration, this is a great day.
