I am so excited about Obama winning..Was rooting for him.
Felt a lill sorry for Mcain. He seems like a good man.
In the celebration party when Obama made the speech several African Americans (including Oprah) were weeping...It was very touching..
Vidu -> I saw the speech too. Was pretty cool. he is a darned good orator. And it's great to see a vast change in the political character of the US. Lets hope he rings in the good change everyine's hoping for!
