[jenmito]

[Adelante]

So there. :-)

[jenmito]

So there. :)

[1corona4u]

7. Hey, it's all good....

:-)

[jenmito]

11. It sure is-even in the Yellow community, the Red community, the Brown community,

and every other community there is!

[1corona4u]

18. LOL, too bad we can't wake up people in this community...

;-)

[jenmito]

25. I bet there's a group of them who DO support Obama

called "Hillbillies for Obama" or something. But thanks for the pics. :puke: :D

[grace0418]

3. Me too!

BARACK OBAMA!

[Connie_Corleone]

5. I'm seeing excitement in the Purple community.

In the Polkadot, Green and Orange communities too.

12. Hey, don't leave out us Pinks & Olives!

We're pretty damned excited! :toast:

[AtomicKitten]

:hi:

14. There are alot of stupid black people in Oakland. I've tried to get young brothers and sisters to

register, but in some cases it's like talking to the wall.

[AtomicKitten]

22. Hope on the move: SF -----> Bay Bridge -----> Oakland.

This election has gone on waaaaaay too long and people have serious problems in their own lives as distraction. We're in the home stretch now.

[Fran Kubelik]

8. Me too!!

I stood in line for 4 1/2 hours in downtown Detroit to see Obama speak. I saw a LOT of excitement in the black community.

[faithfulcitizen]

9. Yeah, and I heard Chicago may go blue!!

:bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

[blondeatlast]

15. GET OUT! Ya think? nt

[faithfulcitizen]

23. I don't know, Chuck Todd said it's close. I don't know what to think! LOL.

[blondeatlast]

24. Hey, but wouldn't that be something, Chicago going blue?! Nah, I don't believe it... nt

[Major Hogwash]

10. It's contagious.

And thank you for this thread!

You rock!!

[blondeatlast]

13. Black, White, Hispanic, Asian Indian, etc; CEOs to cabbies--and even overseas

CEOs to cabbies; I'm seeing it EVERYWHERE.

This is BIG, America.

20. I was in taxis in NYC last week and in Boston

I was on a work trip and whenever I get in taxis, I ask if they're registered to vote. Of course, they were voting for Obama.

[DarthDem]

16. Thank You!!

:-)

[jenmito]

27. My pleasure!

:)

[DCofVA]

17. People who can't see excitement over Obama, have their eyes close

[RollWithIt]

19. There's a great youtube video of a room full of black women doing Obama Shuffle

[jenmito]

28. I LOVE it! It has some aspects of the "Electric Slide." They sure are having

fun!

[medicswife]

Me too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm seeing a LOT of excitement in our black community!

:party:

[vaberella]

21. As a New Yorker in Harlem...I really only see it during election time. About a week and day of.

All you hear is the MTA conductors and people screaming vote Obama.

This is not to say that if you brook the conversation with a New Yorker you won't get the expected glee about Obama. It's just not openly discussed (unless in private conversation) until & around election time.

[Major Hogwash]

26. Someone complained here that we were dancing at our desks too much,

What did they expect?
That we'd be bummed out that Obama was going to be the next President?!

The repubs here are the ones that are bummed out, irritable, cranky, hadn't slept well the night before, and now they don't look forward to coming to work these days.
Why?
Because they don't want to face us.

Because they don't want to see the optimism we have about Obama!!!!

They suddenly don't want to stop working in the middle of the day and "go to Google" anymore, for some odd weird reason.
4 years ago, that's all they wanted to do, telling the rest of us "go to Google" and see what new crap they were saying about Kerry.

Not.
This.
Time.

Their goose is cooked.
Stick a fork in McCain, he's done!!

[jenmito]

29. HA! Great story!

I can only imagine! :hi:

[Major Hogwash]

35. We've come too far to turn back now.

There's no way that we're going to lay down and let them run over the top of us this time.

[jenmito]

36. Exactly. And if they even TRY to suppress the vote, people will be all OVER it!

:toast:

[jenmito]

30. I had a shirt made up saying, "Black, brown, yellow, white, now's the time we must unite!

Obama '08!" With a picture of him. :D

[medicswife]

32. Cool! :) Great shirt!

:yourock:

[jenmito]

33. Thanks! My (Black) sister-in-law had me make one up for her, too!

:hi:

[knixphan]

31. Black and excited, checking in.

(hmmm, need a t-shirt for that)
:hi:

[jenmito]

34. Glad to hear it...

especially when I read "somewhere" that Black people weren't excited about Obama's nomination.

You can make up your own shirt if you want to on the internet! :hi:
