I fear for the Obama family's safety, because these RW wackos are just a little too fond of rifles. :scared:

[tabbycat31]

36. I share your fear.

And I partially blame the GOP for all this fear-mongoring. See more in my blog entry.

9. I've been quietly doing my personal "happy dance" for days.....

Those who know me understand. Those who don't know me think I'm weird. What else is new.

[Wapsie B]

10. Ready for the bible and gun confiscations to start.

[pnorman]

11. Still happy!

Early in 2001, I began growing a beard. It wasn't all that attractive; quite the contrary! Every time I looked in the mirror, I'd think BUSH! (blecchhhh!) Well, just few hours go, I cut the down thing off! One BUSH gone, and the other will depart on Jan. 20th next year!!:woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :applause: :applause: :applause: :applause: :applause: :applause: :applause: :applause: :applause: :applause: :applause: :applause:

[Fovea]

12. kinda paranoid and very gloomy

[Lilith Velkor]

13. Scared shitless that Bush is still President.

Secondary: Happy that Barack won.

[earth mom]

14. Worried. The economy is scaring the hell out of me.

:yoiks:

[emilyg]

15. Amen.

[Liberal_in_LA]

18. Me too. It's getting really bad.

[WeDidIt]

17. OTHER: Completely defeated over Lieberman

if he keeps that chairmanship, everything we've done will be for naught.

[harun]

19. Tired about hearing about Prop 8.

[jonnyblitz]

21. tough shit. we aren't going away. nt

[genna]

41. I want to know what can be done now that the results are in. I'm tired of being blamed for it.

I look forward to seeing how blaming AAs are going to transform that bogus CNN's results from 70.30 to a better ratio.

[AtomicKitten]

20. euphoric, now in a holding pattern

[bitchkitty]

22. I am content, except for one thing.

I know that the media won't shut up about Sarah Palin, but I wish that there weren't so many people on the board willing to discuss her endlessly. Even threads about the number of Palin threads.

[NatBurner]

23. I could use a palinectomy

[spoony]

24. Ready to have the trash picked up

Right now it's like we've just done a major house-cleaning and have all the garbage bagged, but the trucks won't be by for another few months!

[margotb822]

25. I don't know what to do now that

I don't need to check 538 and electoral-vote multiple times a day. It's like I have to do real work...bor-ing!

[kenziemom06]

26. every time I start to get tired or sad...

I realize that Barack Obama is going to be our next President! And I'm happy all over again!!!

[lib_wit_it]

31. Great avatars think alike!

[GreenPartyVoter]

27. Impatient: "Let's get to work already!"

[dkofos]

28. Bored shitless

[JimWis]

29. Happy about the election, worried about the economy, ready

to go but impatient for Jan 20th.

[stuntcat]

30. Sassyfied!!

Sassy + Satisfied!! :headbang:

I voted relieved. I'll never really be happy again I think, us being pretty much doomed and all, but I feel great about the US election! I'm PROUD, something I rarely feel for my species.

[ecstatic]

32. I am happy. This feels good :)

:loveya:

[H2O Man]

34. Other.

Perpetual good mood.

[Willo]

37. Jazzed and ready to work

but also weary of the side stories

[TheKentuckian]

38. Happy but my tolerance for Republiscum continues to wane.

They still will not even remotely take responsibility for damn near destroying the country, are still finding new ways to be stupid, fighting tooth and nail for schemes to rip off working Americans, pointing fingers, and are of course still lying their asses off.

Find the ones that can be reasoned with (if any) and politically whack the rest.

[JuniperLea]

39. 1; 3; 5 & 6

And I'm anxious to see Obama get all of us to work!

[Bryan]

40. I... don't know.

I find I'm not excited or happy. I didn't even cry on election night. The win was not close, but until Pennsylvania and Ohio came in, there was no point at which it did not feel close, and I tried to prepare myself mentally for a bad outcome.

I don't feel relieved per se, I feel sort of jarred and bewildered, like surviving a near-accident in traffic; it's as if this win was the necessary condition for normal life and the process of definition to continue at all, and that anything else would be unthinkable. I also feel somewhat dazed, in a way that I can only compare to leaving a final exam in school. Was that it? That thing I had built up in my mind for months, and it's over? Just like that?

I do feel better, though. A certain amount of the... dread, I guess, that I was carrying around every day is gone. It's as if I had gotten so used to feeling depressed in a vague, miasmic way that I hadn't noticed it. I'm jealous of the people who feel ecstatic instead of just less bad.

[Liberal_in_LA]

44. I know what you mean... kinda like the after holidays feeling.. big buildup,then

"that was it?". Hope you feel a little happiness as the days go by.

[fortyfeetunder]

42. I didn't see DU last week, honest

I was traveling and using a borrowed laptop so I did not look at DU. I cannot imagine what I missed.
Now that I am home, I am flat out exhausted and know once I realize the importance of last Tuesday, I am going cry...
Last Tuesday was also a loved one's b-day that I missed so it's doubly exhausting to make it up to that person.
