Does everyone feel different today? From watching CNN even though our country is still in a mess there seems to be jubilation everywhere certainly more so than the feelings would have been if McCain had won. Even though I didn’t like either candidate I did vote for McCain because of his experience regardless of the campaign to make him look like a Bush clone.

I know the American people want change, but it certainly wont come over night. I hope that the American people aren’t hoping for an overnight fix because no matter who got in it would take time thanks to the mess the Bush administration has put us in. I thought it was great that so many young people actually got more involved in this election than any other and that was definitely a huge boost for President Elect Obama.

Did we make the right choice, maybe, but only time will tell. I do like Joe Biden and think Obama chose the right VP and McCain certainly should have chosen his VP as carefully as Obama did. There’s no doubt that McCain’s whole campaign was flawed and I’m sure it will be analyzed in depth for future Republican campaigns.

One bright spot we can all be happy about is that we will no longer be subjected to all those horrible campaign commercials and no more phone calls. America is certainly going in a new direction and last night was definitely a history making moment. Hopefully the new President Elect will be able to unite all of the people at least now African Americans know that anything can be achieved and there are no barriers.
