I'm really happy about this win. I think Obama is going to be a good president, and I think he has the potential to be a GREAT president. I think he has the right priorities, and the judgemnt, temperment, character and charisma to carry them out.

Obama gave a great acceptance speach tonight. As some of the commentators mentioned, it wasn't all about himself as they so often are, "I'm going to do this. I'm going to do that. I, I, I...." It was about what WE as a country are going to do, and it was realistic about the challenges WE face. I think he is the right leader for this time and he is going to lead US in what WE need to do.

And I thought that McCain's concession speach was one of the best speaches he has given all year. When I saw it, I thought, Now THAT is the McCain a person could VOTE for. Where has he been for the election? I used to like him, but he turned into a hatemongering, xenophobe for the past several months, and I was actually disgusted by him and his campaign. Then as soon as he lost, it was like the old McCain I used to admire was back to concede the race. Wierd. If he had been true to himself the whole way through, he might have won it.
