His victory is thrilling. I did not think that I would see this in my lifetime.

I kept smiling so much last night I couldn't go to sleep! 
And now, let the work continue to the general election.
ETA: When Obama takes the floor at the Democratic Convention to officially accept the nomination it'll be 45 years to the day of Martin Luther King's "I Have a Dream" speech. How's that for history?

I.AM.SO.PROUD.
It is amazing. He is amazing. I am so proud of my old professor. Well done! What a time this is for AAs and for the entire country.
I cried this morning when I thought about the significance of this time...especially for young children of all races (and especially AA boys). Their entire world will be different now b/c of this.
They said that he couldn't do it. They said he wasn't experienced enough.
Well done! I'm so proud.
ETA: HRC, on the other hand, is a whining embarrasment to women. Take.it.like.a.woman HRC. She is NOT representing women very well. Heck, watching her, you'd think all women were whining cry babies who can't admit when they've lost and move forward. Tsk tsk (shaking my head). I cannot understand that she is making herself look worse by behaving in such a way. Word on the street is that she won't even be able to get her job again in NY. What a way to represent women! For shame.

I dunno I just have the feeling that comments only went throught if someone donated to pay off her 11 million dollar debt.
I've hesitated to further express my disappointment w/Hillary with Hillary supporters at work or on blogs as many Hillary supporters respond to constructive criticism of Hillary/praise of Obama with threats/promises to vote for McCain or not at all...
