The Watering Hole

... for being called early.  Frankly, too often you keep us west coasters up late!

brainwashed college kids have had their voice heard.   ::)

Lord help us!

yeah lord help us because things have been going so smoothly since 2000. LOL!

The lord has had 8 years to help us, look where we are now. ;)

It's Obama's turn for at least 4 years! ;)

To paraphrase our new first lady (PLEASE GOD, HELP US!) this is the first time in my adult life that I've been ashamed to be a citizen of Ohio.   ;)

Hook, really, please tell me you know more than to blame the current economy on just GW.  Or even MOSTLY on just GW.  

It's not just about the economy. And it is partly Bush's fault. But the economy is only one problem we have. What about all the other problems that Bush has created?

You're the one that was brainwashed, Howie, since you believe all those bullshit e-mails and GOP talking points that were spread around about Obama.

He's not what you think he is, and the next four years will prove it to you, much to your chagrin, for sure.

Let me add this: McCain's concession speech was brilliant - it made me cry, partially because I saw that guy I would have voted for in 2000 again, if but for a brief moment. But also partially because the McCain supporters embarrassed themselves with their booing and anger. It's clear who the source of the partisan divide is, just based on the crowds over the duration of this campaign...and it's going to be interesting watching Obama try to bridge that gap.

How does he make people who hate him without really knowing him come around to understand we're all in this together? McCain was practically BOOED by his own supporters for suggesting such an idea.

Plus fucking one.  Here is McCain, giving a speech that could only be called "gracious" at the worst.  I thought it was a fantastic, touching speech.  It was that guy, that McCain, that I have seen so little of this campaign.  And his fucking CROWD is yelling shit, and booing.  What an embarassment for McCain to go off stage with that image forever branded in the minds of the world.

Contrast that with Obama's massive crowd... CHEERING when John McCain's name was mentioned.  Cheering.  That, to me, is the difference in tenor that I've been seeing for months now in the campaigns, and the people.  Obama is relentlessly, for lack of a better word, positive.  McCain and Palin were relentlessly negative.
