Give me a liberal democrat, Katt! What did you all think of the acceptance/concession speeches?

beautiful speeches, both.
 I'm for bed...this has worn me out. I pray that the "angels of our better nature" prevail during our move forward from here. Good night, my friends. (((((((((((HUGS)))))))))))))

Thank you! I'm an Obama supporter but I truly hope that in time you'll feel good about him being in office. I thought McCain an okay person but I think we need Obama's skills for our country now. |

Hats off to McCain. His concession speech was particularly distinguished.
Obama's speech was also impressive. I hope he will turn out to be a great president for all Americans.

I like McCain, but I'm glad Obama won.
Palin freaked me out though. In any case, congratulations US'ers on electing a new president!  *bakes cookies in the shapes of mules, elephants and eagles*

 Got my army decision today. Civil service, fortunately. I'm glad. And am also glad that Obama won. Not that it actually matters to me, but it's good to have an afro-American (am I supposed to call him that?) in lead for the first time - and hopefully not for the last.

What does Civil Service entail?
And how long do you have to do that?

Usually we say "African-American" these days.
But "American" will do.

Would anyone be willing to buy an extra copy of your local newspaper today for me to buy? I'd like to have copies from all over of the election coverage. I'll pay for paper and shipping (if I can figure out how that's done, lol.
If you can, pm me. Thanks.

*Yawns and stretches*
Amazing night, everyone ^^ I am seriously so proud of all the voters who got out and made their voices heard yesterday... And boy did we make our voices heard in a big way! *raises her teacup* Here's to change! McCain's concession speech was great... showcasing how much of a class act he truly is, because yes this is a time for us all to pull together and not let political parties or race or sex or anything divide us. Obama's speech... inspirational, pure and simple... he has the vision to get us where we need to go, and now all we can hope is that everyone helps as best they can to improve our country... Thank all you Americans for voting... you make me proud to be among you

Hehe, Americans are so sentimental.
 (Don't fall over me, it was meant in a positive way. It's just that no one here cries after voting or even bothers to vote anyway.) Sis, we have at least 9 big newspapers here. Which one do you want?

I dunno...the one that's most excited. The one with the nicest picture. The one that shows the Dutch celebrating in the streets because they're happy for us. That one.

I doubt I can find one in which Dutch people are celebrating in the streets, unless they are out and drunk
As I said, we are boring.
