Barack, your grandmother now has the best seat in the house and she'll be watching you tomorrow.

And my grandma will be with her.

RIP Toot

1. Yep

My thoughts exactly.

[PresidentObama]

2. I was just thinking this over, and you're right.

I'm just glad that her pain has ended, and now she'll be laid to rest.

She was a great woman from what I can gather, and she didn't live to vote for her grandson for President.

But she'll be there in his life in more ways than one as President.

5. Right on, right on. She was tired, and now she'll be rejuvenated and

and ready to focus on her baby.

shit it's sad though, ain't it. Condolences to the family.

7. RIP Toot, you raised a beautiful man, thank you.

My prayers go out to Obama's heart.

8. That's exactly what I thought.

My mom is there too and if she has any connections she'll be stacking votes!!

9. My grandmother passed away the week of my wedding and this is how I felt

In fact I was a pawl bearer the morning of my wedding and it all just made sense in a way

I'm so sad for the Obama family.

Rest in peace.

12. Yes. She'll be with her husband and her daughter

watching their "little Barry" make history. :cry:

15. Heaven's own election party

...you know, for as much as some would play up Obama's "blackness", there's no denying how much he resembles his grandpa.

17. Awww... thank you for posting this picture! Love and prayers...

[pinstikfartherin]

13. Well said.

RIP Toot.

[renate]

14. I know there are people here who don't believe that, and I respect their opinion

But the important thing is that, because of his faith, Obama does believe that she will be there in spirit... so I hope it will be a comfort to him.

Personally, I believe it too. She couldn't be with him while she was thousands of miles away in Hawaii, but she'll be right by his side tomorrow. O8)

16. What a sweet way to put it.
