McCain's President Is Black!!

When I saw the CNN update display that Obama won the presidential election, all I could do was pause and take in the reality that "yes we can" and yes we DID!

We ran around the living room screaming.  We ran out of the house shouting.  We cried and dropped upon our knees praising God's name.  We prayed for our president's protection.  We toasted to change, to health insurance, to jobs, to a better economy, to better times.

Our FL votes weren't even in (why I don't understand, oh wait they're floating in the Everglades as we speak) but it didn't even matter.  Shit, the Commonwealth was on point before we were.

My daddy (his wannabe elitist ass) is a Republican.  I knew once Powell endorsed Obama there was hope for my jaded father. He rarely strays from his party but yesterday he voted Democrat.

I am still in awe and full of a range of emotions.  Boy, you know them saltines gone act a fool now!
