Watching KO's retrospective of the campaign
and seeing the convention again is making me cry all over again.

We're down to the wire now, folks. Fired up. Ready to go!

5. The DNC had me grinning so hard
I was sick all that week so I watched hours and hours of MSNBC DNC footage. I wish they sold it on DVD, I'd watch it all again! :rofl:

9. Hilary was spectacular. I had forgotten that moment, and the primaries
seem like they happened years ago instead of just a few weeks. i am so hopeful, so pleased at what is happening. My youngest daughter just voted in her first election. She came home from college to vote at the courthouse today. She waited in line about three hours. I am so proud of her, and this country. Please let my hopes bu upheld. Please let Obama win a national landslide. Please let the dems win every congressional seat, and state office. I feel it. I feel the possibility and the hope.

11. I can't believe how emotional I am about this election
it didn't help to pull up this great youtube for my son earlier.

He loved it too and we're not "musicals" types.

If you haven't see this one, "have you heard the people sing" thank you to all the ppl who have worked for/donated to Obama

13. Watching the tape of the Repug convention
Reminded me (as if one needs reminding) what a sarcastic bunch of f--ks they are. Gotta love that dig at Obama on "community organizer"..bet they wish right about now they had his community organizing skills!

15. Me too. I was normal UNTIL his acceptance in front of a 70K crowd
and just the whole "let's get unified and beat these horrible people" vibe.

We are stoked. No surprises like Palin or cheap talk about Ayers will change it.

We will take our country back. Nothing short of the inauguration can cap that picture of Barack as "THAT ONE" our party's nominee.
