+1 Obama



Go get 'em, POTUS! Make America proud!

Fukkodeer...I'm a bit drunk.

That was one of the best speeches I've ever heard...young Mr. Obama has studied a few President Clinton speeches, to be sure...he inspired the chit out of me tonight.

Sen. McSame's speech was pretty good, I think...leave out not only the references to how great Palin was (he was behind the 8 ball already, she ended it), and the fact that his great "American" supporters booed every time he said something nice about Obama (yeah, they're Americans)...he was gracious, Presidential, smart, conciliatory, and far reaching...I think he might actually be a fine ally of Obama's in the Senate.

Fish on...

P.S. Someone remind me to call the cleaners to get all the champagne off the furniture tomorrow...my bottle damn near exploded at 8:01pm tonight, and most of it went everywhere but in a glass

Washington state Democratic chairman just made the comment that for the first time since 9/11 America is a great nation.

I thought it was a great nation all along.

Though I didn't vote for obama I sure will back my president and demand that he does good for the country.

I think it was a great nation all along, too...that very fact is why things went the way they did tonight.

We've always been a great nation...even the last eight years...we're just going to go back to being even greater now.

Fish on...

Two things that jump out at me while watching the coverage. One, the word mandate is being used. While he did when the electoral vote by a landslide, is it really a mandate when the popular vote is much closer. I guess I would think a true mandate would take a 60% or greater vote. The second thing that strikes me is that it is obvious that many liberals really thought a black man couldn't win. I, as a conservative, really had no doubt. I think Colin Powell would have one by a landslide if he had run as a republican. I can understand African-Americans being excited, but I really hope this election wasn't about race but about a good candidate. Tonight race was focused on as much or more than anything. I understand its historic, but at the same time feel it should be proof that the issue is more moot than anything, not more important.
The best or worse, I truely believe he has the potential for both.

Now lets quote a line from Spaceballs..."Lonestar.. I see your Schwartrz is as big as mine..Now lets see how well you handle it"...Is he about endurance or is he about just getting his rocks off????? I sincerely hope that he is as good a statesman as he is an orator.Only time will tell.

You guys didn't drink enough.

You ran out?!?

What the hell kind of planning was that?

I stocked up bigtime. I KNEW my guy was going to get trounced, so I wanted to get real sauced-up to watch the drama.

If I was an Obama voter, I'd redistribute some your way..............but I'm a Ron Paul guy, so I'll just go ahead and keep it for myself.

It's not too late to run to the store.............is it?

Olympia was a dancing in the streets tonight.
Intersections were blocked off by the OPD, every tavern had a line out the door.
I have never seen anything like it, ever.
Not New Years, not Fourth of July.
V-J day minus the fvcking in the streets.

Same in Seattle tonight...I just got home

Stam--quite worrin about the bush in the White House-----get that bondo spread, we got things ta do!

You guys haven't left yet?

NO---Stam had work ta do today, some excuse about 2 employees walkin out the door pukin.

now we know what $600,000,000 can buy.

Hey, didn't you tell me that you had a case of The Abyss.....

Run out????

One can't drink more than a bottle of the stuff per night, let alone attempt to drink a case in that short order.

I'm not buying that excuse!

How's the hangover this am?

Evil.

Totally Evil.

I drank a bit too much last night. Didn't feel so hot as I went to bed. Felt good about the election, but not so good in my stomach. Note to self: chicken goes well with one bottle of chardenay, but don't try to polish off two!

I thought McCain's concession speech was outstanding work (well all except the props to Palin, but hey, he was supposed to say nice things in a concession speech) and really well delivered. I found myself thinking that if he campaigned talking like that, he would have pursuaded a lot more votes, despite the Bush turds that shackled his campaign.

Obama ran an outstanding campaign, and gave an inspirational victory speech, but really, he should have thanked the Bush administration for ensuring the ultimate success of his election. I thought the Dems were taking a risky path with their two frontrunners being a female and a black in what was highly likely to be a very close election. Small but significant demographics who just won't vote for a female or a black make an important difference if the election is going to be close. Only the misery that is Bushco could tip an otherwise close balance. Just this once, I thank George Bush and his miserable administration for giving us Obama as our next president.

Just got off the phone with Larry Flynt, no Playboy for this Mav'rick.

Hey Nice to see you Sarah, I never thought you would join this board! ....you must have a little extra time on your hands today

Has anyone seen the clips from the Hustler/Palin movie? Pretty good.
