HOLY SHIT I CANNOT BELIEVE THIS IS HAPPENING!!!! I HOPED AND I PRAYED BUT I NEVER THOUGHT IT WOULD ACTUALLY HAPPEN!!! AND IT HAS, ITS GOING TOO!!!!!! HISTORY IN THE MAKING!!! I WANT TO CRY RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hahahaha! Aaaawww!! You know I cried a little first thing this morning when I found out, and I'm not even American. And I'm an old cynic - I know it's what happens from here on in that really counts (Tony Blair made me a cynic) I just wish so so much that my dad was still alive to witness this edit : wow - I didn't realise it was going to come out so BIG again

I wish our own government in Ireland could whip up so much passion and loyalty, instead the just fuck us over at every opportunity!! I cried during the coverage of Brian Cowen's homecoming to Offaly after he was made Taoiseach! Claire do you realise now that Offaly is becoming quite the little powerhouse county. Not only is the Taoiseach from there but so too is Obama!! I also bawled my eyes out looking at all the Obama coverage. I was listening to some of in on RTE Radio 1 on the way to work this morning and at the end they played Bob Dylan's 'The Times they are a Changin' with Martin Luther King's voice and Obama's voice dubbed in to it and that really made the tears roll. They were looking at me funny then when I arrived in to work with half my make up missing!

What a difference between Cowen & Omama tho! If Cowen had a smidgen of the charisma I might actually not want to vomit everytime he tries to lie to us!!!!!! Yes, I'm angry, very angry!! Dont think its too far to say that we, the people of the country, are getting in the way of the government so they're gonna try and kill us off slowly, the over 70's first (How very dare they live that long??!!) and now woman who will contract cervical cancer!! Indeed, why the hell give the vaccine? I've never been this disillusioned!! *rant over........for now*

Obama got beat in Oklahoma ( KOL's home state) so badly so they are definitely in the minority
