The acceptance speech had me on the verge of tears and it would have happened had people in the room not been making jokes about the people on TV. Amazing how he brought up the story of the 106 year old woman from Atlanta who saw so much and didn't have her head stuck up her ass like some of the counterparts from her generation... it was really inspiring and I really hope once we all reach that age, we will be as open minded.
What WAS interesting was to see McCain go out with class and concede his defeat early on. I did read something about him suing a military voting process that may or may not have helped him. Sarah Palin was also there on the sidelines and had nothing to say as well. I expected to hear something out of her but nothing so far. ALSO, during the McCain concession speech, any mention of the name "Barack Obama" drew loud roars and boos from the crowd (some of which he had to stop) and when Barack Obama said thank you to John McCain, the crowd in Chicago cheered him on and I honestly couldn't hear any boos at all. Maybe thats what you get when your campain focuses on appealing to the lowest common denomination or as some would call it, the "REAL AMERICA" (lol).
I got out of school at 6:30pm after school and turned on the TV (it was left on Fox before) and they had 'breaking news' so I didn't want to switch plus its always great to see what all the major networks are reporting. Bottom of the screen said "MCCAIN CAMP ADMITS THERE IS NO PATH TO 270" while the reporter was talking to a Democratic spokeswoman who candidly referred to Barack Obama as "President Obama" and the reporter nearly foamed at the mouth and said "well lets not jump to speculations so quickly" when the Democratic spokeswoman already knew it was over for them ALL WHILE the bottom of the screen flashed the statement from the McCain camp. Its almost COMEDY to see Faux Nooz PAINFULLY have to admit that Barack Obama was the winner from the election. Its like they did all they could to smear, badmouth, and paint him in such a negative light and they're in disbelief that it didn't work out for em.
