… it was for Barack. Some of my readers won’t be surprised (okay most all).

Well I have a few gripes. There were two people handing out sheets we had to print and sign. Why these weren’t on a table with a bunch of pens so we could take care of this mundane task ahead of time is beyond me? Then our sheets were given to one person looking us up in a computer system.

Then once we were looked up our sheet was given to a group of 5 people where one person handed us the voting sheet. Why the 5 people? The line will only move as fast as the one computer guy.

Anyways, I don’t want to dwell on this too much. Tonight is a historic night as Barack was just announced the 44th President and McCain conceeded. But it won’t stop there, come 2009 the history continues and we will get to see what Barack can do to unite this country and world to work together once again.

It was depressing to see McCain supporters get antsy and start to boo as McCain talked about who Barack was as a person and how we they need to unite under him. But for right now I have a hard time being too depressed. Those at McCain’s speech are a small minority and for now I am celebrating.

As well as Ohio and Florida. I realize these are all early projections, but if true I fail to see how McCain still can win. All pretty big news.

There are a number of things wrong with Dole’s ad in my opinion. First, the obvious lie. We see it every campaign and tons of us are not only pissed off about the lies but many of us denounce them. Yet the honest politicians get a bad rap for saying what people don’t want to hear. I can’t tell you how many times I have heard friends and popular bloggers say how Obama screwed himself out of presidency for the things he has said.

In this election though things might start swinging a bit because unlike truth telling politicians in the past, Obama seems to be getting the votes. I just wish people would put other priorities out in front of their ideologies.

Was flipping channels this morning and saw Powell on CNN. He was discussing his endorsement of Obama! You read correctly there…

Powell caught a lot of flak for lying to the United Nations. I think he got a quick lesson in how following one’s ideologies can burn you really quick.

One question… Can Palin complete a single thought or sentence for that matter that doesn’t just keep rambling on into one long sentence that never seems to end, to the point where you sit there and wonder what the original point was in the first place it’s just unreal how she keeps going on and on and I just can’t believe how close she is to being president, speaking on presidents did you hear what Bush did today… 

McCain says, “[...] The troops know I’ll take care of them cause I love them [...]”

But he doesn’t say how… I need more than words.
