Comments on: Barack Obama Wins Presidency

John McCain Concedes As Democrat Earns Historic Victory; "A New Dawn Of American Leadership Is At Hand," Says President Elect

[denn034]

Congratulations on becoming America''s first black President, Obama! My problem with Obama was his politics not his gender or race as was the case among Democrats during the Primary.

Melinyc, I think your comment earlier about Obama 2012 was somewhat toungue-in-cheek, but don''t you think that it''s not too early to start solidfying support? consider what happened to Clinton in 1994. The Republican party certainly isn''t going to wait. I know they have a lot on their plate but I hope the Obama people are smart enough to think ahead as well.

You can always tell about what time the schools let out by the decline in the level of discourse.

A few "thank you''s" are in order.
Thank you to the REPUBLICAN''T PARTY for:

-Sarah Palin
-Joe the Plumber
-Williams Ayers as a non-issue
-ACORN as a non-issue
-referring to Obama as "that one" in the debates
-lipstick on a pig
-Coal
-Last minute Rev. Wright ads that turned off voters
-"my fellow prisoners"
-McCain suspending his campaign (who noticed?)
-Socialism
-Communism
-characterizing Obama as a "celebrity"
-criticizing Obama as being "elite" (elite is good, morons)
-calling Obama a Muslim
-Generally inciting hate and division
-never having a consistent message
-NEVER addressing the pressing issues that concern the American people, but focusing on the above BS

and most of all...

Thank you for BEHAVING LIKE REPUBLICANS.

After The Election: Impromptu Rally At White House Draws Massive Crowd

November 5, 2008 12:08 PM

Car horns honked throughout the city. People climbed on top of street lamps, newspaper boxes and bus shelters. As we moved from U Street, which eventually filled with people and cars all the way from 10th to 15th Street, and headed south to the White House, the celebration didn''t slow down. Down 14th street to Thomas Circle, everyone hooted and hollered. They stood up through their sunroofs to cheer on passersby on the sidewalk. They danced. They played drums. They honked and honked and honked.

Washington, D.C.''s majority Democrat, majority black population flooded the streets with noise. Inside the crowd, a highly diverse makeup was evident. I saw Asians, South Asians, Latinos, Native Americans, whites and blacks coming together in the crowd to cheer the election of this country''s first African-American president.

This wasn''t the kind of aggressive crowd a big city can sometimes get in the aftermath of a major sports championship. Washington was joyous. In those early morning hours, there was nothing but love between neighbors. At the very site of the worst of the 1968 riots, there was dancing instead.


One of the largest celebrations took place outside the White House, where thousands gathered to revel, singing both the National Anthem, and, of course, "Kiss Him Goodbye" -- dedicated to our current president. Liz Glover ventured down to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue to capture the scene, and found a mixture of jubilation, skepticism, but mostly...yes...hope.

Its not to early to blame the Dems. Just look at Pelosi and Reid.
