But you know, as badly as I wanted Obama to be President, I almost didn't think it was possible. I didn't think America was capable of this.

But we were. And for the first time in a long time, I'm proud of us and proud of our country.

...

PRESIDENT OBAMA. I still can't quite believe it.

For once America voted with the good side of its brain D:!

FUCK YEAH!

I'm so proud of this country. I was worried we permanently had our head up our own ass, but we didn't!

Next on the list is a gay president XD!
 
posted by [identity profile] stunt-muppet.livejournal.com at 05:45am on 05/11/2008
Or a lesbian president! Female and gay. Because why not?

If he didn't win we'd all have to listen to the sad version of the song.
 
posted by [identity profile] stunt-muppet.livejournal.com at 05:39am on 05/11/2008
But he did! Which is good, because sad "America Fuck Yeah" just sounds wrong.

It's such a relief that Obama won. I'd lost all faith in this country, but now I have a teeny bit of hope once more.
 
posted by [identity profile] stunt-muppet.livejournal.com at 05:45am on 05/11/2008
I'm almost scared to hope too much - it seemed too good to be true. But maybe, just maybe, this is where things turn around for this country.

obama took 71% in our county!!! I was so shocked seeing North Carolina and Virginia go Blue, WHAT THE HELL!! Ohio, New Mexico and so forth

I know! Especially North Carolina; one of the reasons I was so insistent on using the absentee ballot was that I didn't think my vote would count in NC, but it would have. And that's amazing.
