On The Cusp Of History – Obama FTW!
It is what the whole world is talking about and I’m no different. The United States Presidential Elections 2008 – the biggest, most expensive and possibly the most historic of our times. This is a momentous day for the whole world. The lines have formed, the poll booths beginning to open. The people are decided. I’m, of course, pro-Obama. A man of such charm and so compelling an orator that it is impossible to listen to him and not want to believe everything he asks you to believe in. How else do you explain the fact that he leads Mr.McCain in Virginia, a state that hasn’t voted Democrat in over 44 years? How else do you justify his complete conquest of the very same states that Mr.George W. Bush Jr. swept clean during his Republican election campaign? You don’t.
I’m in my home, with only the constant buzz of speculation and statistics from news websites for company, and already my nerves are taut with premonition. I want this to happen. I know this is going to happen.
