Someone told their MAMA to vote for OBAMA.

She did, and she told her friends and apparently they did too!  I found this photo on Flickr and thought it was pretty sweet.

Nov 4th, 2008 was truly an historic day, and would have been no matter how the election turned out.  It is special for any number of reasons, and I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t happy to see a “Black Man”, as he is referred to, elected into office. Not because of him being black, but because it’s symbolic of so many issues that I won’t get into.  But moreso, I think that maybe he can be a guy that can inspire people to do so many things. I personally don’t look at him as an “iconic” figure like some do; but I don’t do that for anyone, so maybe that’s my shortcoming!  I fully don’t expect him to “change the world”, because after all he’s just one man, a lawyer, a politician, and a seasoned speaker. I also think it’s funny when those on the other side think that the world is coming to an end. Seriously folks, he’s the President-elect, not the second coming of Christ!

I get more teary eyed watching E.R. than getting worked up about politicians, but I did get a little worked up over his speech on Election Night.  I hope that great things come from his administration, but for  myself, him getting elected was important in it’s own right. Time will tell if he’s worth the wait.

It can’t get any worse can it?
