1) Yay Obama!
2) That said, are you fucking kidding me, it looks like Prop 8 is going to pass and Arizona and Florida passed bans on gay marriage as well. Tonight was historic, yes, but that ruined it for me a little bit. There's still a long way to go.
3) I have yet to hear from a single non-American who would rather McCain win. I think that's pretty damn telling. (Also someone today said "I'm not happy that Obama is in so much as Bush is out." Also true!)
4) I mentioned
this to some friends (original page
here), and found out another bit of trivia: guess the two presidents with the lowest IQs. That's right, Bush Jr. and Bush Sr!
5) Time it took after Obama's win to start jokes about painting the White House: about two hours.
