Lol, BTD!!!!

Can you imagine the hateful vitriol in his e-mails now?? Could be entertaining.

I'd so respond with the same line I gave my dad that seems to be very popular with conservatives:

"If you don't like this country, you're welcome to leave." :evil:

Gods, I love dishing that back out.

I actually felt a little bad for McCain during his concession speech. Had to deal with the rude rable he encouraged while he sold out his ideals and his precious honor in an ultimately unsuccessful quest.

And the stuff I've learned about what he was really like during the times I actually liked him can't be unlearned. He has been diminished in a way that wasn't necessary. I wonder if, since he lost anyway, he regrets not remaining the John McCain that the Republican base would have never supported. For all the good it did him to gain that support.



I teared up at one point during Obama's speech. But I think it was the part that implied the rights likely denied me tonight in California would be regained someday. He's a powerful speaker when it counts. I will give him the chance to be the powerful president we all deserve and hope for.


Good luck, President Obama. Do good by us and by you.

Had McCain been like he was during his concession speech, it would have been a closer race.

Had McCain not picked Palin
Had McCain picked Ridge
Had McCain a clue on the Economy
Had McCain not went negative

So many chances, so many mistakes. It's probably better a guy like that stays in the senate.

I found McCain's concession speech mostly palatable, but his use of "associations" soured it for me. I know he was trying to speak to those people who were riled up against Obama over Ayers and Wright, telling them to let it go because we're all Americans, but all it did was remind me that HE was the sleazeball who riled them up in the first place.

But enough about that, Yes We Could! I have been foolishly imagining this moment for 4 years. At that convention I saw someone who was everything our leaders, and potential leaders, of the time were not. Experience or no, he seemed to have the head for the job and I'm thrilled the country came to agree.

Now don't screw it up!

Yeah, I found his concession speech to be pretty much on script for every undoubted concession speech ever given. And the audience booing with the loser graciously shushing them is part of that script. But he did it and didn't technically have to, so good for him and time to move on.

And just think, it'll be just two years until we're once again asking ourselves (as a nation) whether a two-year senator -- Palin -- has what it takes to run this country.

I half expect Hillary to change parties so she can run again....

I can't stop thinking it. Yes, we did.

We - all of us - did this.

I know many of you are on Obama's email list but I thought I'd share this, sent just before he went on stage last night. Emphasis mine.

This election not only elected an intelligent leader, but it also mobilized millions. All of us who helped, even in small ways, now have stake in the future of our country. I'll be ready to answer the call, and I know everyone else will too.

This is why the "messiah" accusation falls flat in the end, because it's always been a group, a movement, a collaboration of people from all across America. Even in the states Barack lost, there were people trying. There were Dem offices in the most historically red places, places where the blue have feared to even open a storefront in the past 20 years.

There's always been a "we" in the campaign. And that "we" isn't going anywhere. Yes, We Did, yesterday, and for months prior - but now there's the ongoing Yes We Can, Yes We Will - make this country better.
