My mind is still blown. I voted for him, but watching the numbers pile up was...I can't express. I figured he might win, but taking the majority of the electoral votes was not in my picture. I actually had tears in my eyes several times last night and I've never been like that over politics, never.

I'm hoping beyond hope that this does mean change in a real way for my country, and everybody we (wittingly or unwittingly) influence.

It's infuriating we have to trudge through another 70 days of Bush before the new regime takes over.

Seriously. For the health of the nation, they should have decommissioned him immediately. I'm sure seventy days is enough time to start a few wars.

And thank you; now that song is stuck in my head . . .

Sorry about that. I find the only way to dislodge a catchy tune is to start singing another one.
