25. Actually, "ashamed" is coming up quite
frequently in the McShame scroll. Makes you wonder.

19. I am EXCITED. Tonite we will know one way or the other if we have a Democracy.
There has been lots of discussion about this. We fail in some of the criteria, but if Obama wins, we know we still have a democracy and if McCain wins we will know that we lost it and need to take drastic (peaceful of course)and immediate steps to reclaim our democracy.

21. Very cool!
Edited on Tue Nov-04-08 05:45 PM by intheflow
My word was "optimistic." :)

Among the despair with McCain supporters, someone said that they felt "hungry." :rofl:


Edited to add, I wonder what the ratio of respondents is between Obama and McCan't supporters. The Everyone page seems to be a steady stream of optimism, hope and patriotic pride, with a negative scrolling by very infrequently...
