    I do have one question though, a little off topic. In the last two presidential elections, wasn't it at least a few days after election day that Bush was named the winner? I know that Gore requested a re-count, so maybe that was the reason with that election. Maybe I am just confused, but I didn't expect to see who the winner was so soon this year.
    Yes it was several days due to the election was so tight & close with Bush/Gore.. This time there was a land slide of who won.. For one Obama had all the electoral votes needed.. He only needed 270 & he had 349.. That is usually automatic win..

    America does seem happier today. No matter who we may have voted for, he is our President-Elect and deserves our respect. I thought McCain's speech was well worded and had intended to stay up to see Obama's but couldn't keep my eyes open. I am sure I will see it in the days to come.

    I would agree with this based on the conversations I overhear at work. I realize the election was only yesterday and The Presidency does not change hands until Janurary, but I guess I expected to see the "happiness" reflected more on Wall Street, then the loss of almost all the ground that was gained yesterday. Probablly shows how much I know and why I don't "play the market"!

    Driving home at 1 a.m. last night I noticed that nearly all the signs that were out on public land and fields were already cleaned up!!

    Not sure if the people that placed them there did it, or if the city took care of it, but it's nice to see people cleaning up.

    Obama Baracks my world!
    Our neighborhood went nuts well into the night. I kept looking up at the sky yelling *mom! dad! You watchin'???* They'd be thrilled. My dad always predicted this..saw no reason why it couldn't happen. Now..when a woman wins...ecstacy!



    I've been Boooo'd!
