and a special shout-out to OHIO for waking up and smelling the coffee

I have chills all over my arms and back. I am so electrifyingly happy right now; I no longer have to believe that most Americans are idiots, that we fear change, and that we would rather ride a sinking ship than try and swim for safety. My heart is racing.

I honestly feared, after Gore giving up so easily after the first Bush win, that any election could be stolen. With another Bush election in 2004, that Americans were so afraid of change that they'd re-elect the very man that had given them the ill-advised war in which we were entrenched. What would it take to bring change?

Obama is a human being, and he's coming into a very difficult presidency, but I believe that HE believes in what's best in all Americans, and he will help us raise ourselves to become what we are capable of becoming.

Both of these are still neck and neck. I am ready to vomit at the drop of 8 passing, but holding out hope.
