Election '08

I'll suck it up and make a post!

I say congrats to Obama for running a great campaign and winning the election, to McCain for being a humble man who honorably accepted defeat,  and to everyone who voted for caring enough to move this country in another direction.

I want to say that I think no matter who won, this country is bound to move in a better direction since it can't get much worse than it is.

I am happy for those of you who voted for Obama and hope, for those of you who didn't, he surprises you and really does well for America.

  • Here, here! ?I'm just glad the ads are over! ?I love the political process but this election was ridiculous.

  • Last night was so nice and peaceful without the campaign phone calls!  And I loved the lack of junk mail... 
  • I think the biggest victory is that people turned out in record numbers. ?I'm hoping this becomes a trend. ?

    I thought both speeches were inspirational and I'm VERY interested to see what happens next. ?

    ?For MA, it looks like it'll be some changes if Obama takes Kerry and Patrick with him, so I'm looking forward to the domino effect there and see what kind of change that brings to MA. ?

    ?Only the state of MA would elect to keep income tax,?decriminalize?marijuana??and ban dog racing all at the same time. :)

    ?I won't miss the Sununu Shaheen ads though, we were getting pounded with them. ??

  • Oh man. The Shaheen/Sununu ads were absolutely ridiculous. Worse than the presidential ones, IMO. I am very glad those are done with.

    haha.. very true Feef...

    I'm glad that the election is over... now instead of everyone attacking each other, maybe we can move on to fixing the problems facing us!

  • I am extremely glad it is over...and both had great speeches.  I hope he does well but he has a VERY hard road ahead of him.  People say all the time it can't worse...but it can...such as a terrorist attack (God Forbid).  The one thing George Bush did right for this country was to at least keep as free of that.
  • I am thrilled that Obama won!
  • I too am extremely happy at the voter turnout and that the political ads/phone calls/door knockers are over!

    I do wish someone would take down the sign I drive by when I go to work:

    "Stop Communism" with a big circle with a slah through it over Obama's name...that one scares me.
