Last night I cried

Last night as I finally got home after a long day at work I turned on CNN and found Senator Barack Obama was our next President of the United States. I screamed and began jumping on my bed like a little kid, calling my mom and saying "We did it, oh my god, we did it!"

Despite having to get up in a mere 3 hours to go back in to work I stayed up to watch President Elect Obama's speech. It was beautiful, poetic- surely to be named one of the greatest speeches in history. I was overcome with emotions and a strong belief that change really is going to come to America. I could already imagine myself telling my kids someday that I witnessed one of the most historical moments in the history of America.

As I tried to fall asleep I was disrupted by sirens, car horns incessantly blaring, chants and cheers, and even gun shots. I didn't mind- I opened my window and fell asleep with a smile on my tear laden face to the sounds of victory, to the sound of change.

Last night I cried. Not of despair or out of pain or rage. Not because I lost something or had my feelings hurt. No, last night I cried because for the first time in a long time I truly believed that change was going to come. Yes. We. Can.



Congrats, President Elect Obama!

I endorse Senator Barack Obama for President

At this time I would like to officially endorse Senator Obama for President of the United States.

Also, if you have not done so yet, get out and vote! Proudly tell others that you voted today in the most historic election our country has ever had and encourage them to do the same.

Tomorrow will be a new day. I'm counting on change- how about you?

Todd Palin endorses Senator Obama

In an interview earlier today, on the eve of our presidential election Todd Palin, husband of McCain's running mate Governor Palin, endorsed Senator Obama saying, "I feel that Senator Obama has a lot to offer this country- more so than his oponent."

When asked about the moment he first realized Senator Obama would be better suited for the presidency than Senator McCain, Todd Palin stated "Originally I was going to vote for Senator McCain but that all changed when he shocked the nation with his atrocious choice of running mate." A member of the media was nice enough to point out to Mr. Palin that the running mate of whom he spoke so harshly was in fact his wife.

Todd Palin responded, "I didn't marry her because she was smart."

Sarah Palin makes appearance on SNL- Tina Fey kicks ass!

When I found out Governor Palin was going to be on SNL I got sick to my stomach and almost put down the Washington Post in disgust. Almost. Instead of boycotting SNL, which I was seriously considering, I decided to tune in Saturday night at 11:30 and I'm glad I did. Tina Fey was phenomenol and SNL made fun of Sarah Palin to her face. She just stood there and took it, even getting in a few jabs at herself- priceless.
