Obama Wins!

Barack Hussein Obama is the next President of the United States of America! I’m still amazed, honestly. I expected more shenanigans. I expected it to be really close. I expected the ‘good ol’ boy’ network to win again, having used the tactics that they know best; fear, paranoia, and (sadly) even hate. But tonight the voices of the people have spoken. I’m surprised, and very pleased.

The fervor and hate that was whipped up over the past several months kept me from thinking that there could be the landslide there was tonight. That through all the fear and the hate, that someone consistently positive, someone who stands the best chance to heal not only the nation, but the nation’s standing on the world stage, could win, still stuns me. I’m amazed, shocked, and pleased beyond reason. I sincerely hope that it marks a turning point for our country, and for the world.
