Okay.. I'm late. Yay, Obama won. I'd never be able to describe how happy I was the night of the election. I was with friends, I was by myself, I was with total strangers... the entire night was glee. People were rapt with attention at the two bars I was at as the states fell to Obama. Afterward, I headed back downtown to the convention center to see the local and final results come in. The whole night was grand (except for Prop 8 passing and Al not winning yet... soon.) Okay.. so not blog until now.. why? Well, I felt like we stormed the place and shot all the bad guys dead.. but there was an easy calm and silence as the smoke began to rise. It ain't over.. not even close. It's never over... the fight goes on... there's Eric Cantor hiding behind a spittoon, there's John McCain trapped inside a closet... the gun lobby and the wall street bankers are fleeing on horses plotting to fight another day. To change metaphors from cowboys to football.... nice handoff Bush.. I guess I should save the economic collapse (I thought they said the fundamentals of our economy are strong) for another blog... just popping in to work out the kinks.
Yay Obama.. yay Dems.. yay science.. yay common sense and decency..
I'm out...
