Barack Obama! The 44th President!!

I feel sorry for his grandmother though. I mean if she just had 3 more days to live she could see her grandson become the first black president of the US.

Yeah, I thought that was sad too. At that rally before the voting began, didn't he tear up a bit?
 
It seemed to me that McCain was the lesser of two evils. I don't really care that much, though. It probably won't affect me personally.
 
Yeah but this also means the bloodshed is over. I mean only things like madTV made this election actually feasible. There were no good laughs except from there.

Why? Seriously, I am very curious as to how exactly McCain can possibly look like a better candidate in the political environment that tends to predominant on this forum. Also if you think it won't affect you... Perhaps you need a better understanding of global politics.
 
hey WAIT... accordin' to CNN the votes haven't been counted, there is now a reaaallllly tiny chance that McCain wins... hmmmmmmm... in fact he might take Ohio
 
So he's not gonna win

WHOO OBAMA

It was amazing, I stood by the TV the entire day ♥

And according to CNN he has 338 EVs
 
I've been lurking the election topics here and on another forum, and it's pretty interesting to watch. The majority of the posters in the other thread are a lot more conservative than I'd have thought, hmm. I kind of want to see what would happen if I took you guys and set you on them.

Everyone's said this already, but I thought the concession/acceptance speeches were both really nice. Very cool of McCain to take it so well (publicly, anyway) and tell off his supporters for booing and stuff. (Even cooler that Obama's supporters had the grace to applaud when Obama mentioned McCain, although I guess they're in a better overall mood, aren't they?)

He officially conceded, so... nope.

And I agree with Kratos; I was really just like, "Uggh" when people started booing during his concession speech. The guy is trying to go out with grace and encourage people to work to improve the country even if they didn't vote for Obama, and you're going to boo? Honestly, now, that's really just awful.

Missed Obama's speech, though, since my roommate had turned off the TV.
 
everyone who thinks this is a bad thing is retarded

i've been watching bbc since one am and i think i fell asleep at some point but my mum woke me up with LOOK LOOK OBAMA'S DOING HIS SPEECH

Like opal said, on behalf on Europe, I'd like to say: thank you. Thank you for finally electing someone who's a good politician and a good person.
Hopefully you'll return to something resembling the Clinton years after eight years of idiocy.

Congratulations on taking the first step towards not being the most hated country on Earth anymore!

It had to be done.
 
YAY! Now Sarah Palin won't fuck up the world by halting the endangered species status on poler bears for her precious, precious oil! and teach her stupid abstinence only sex ed classes. If ppl wanna get pregnant at 17, they can do that.

GO OBAMA! I hope he doesn't get assassinated! Thats racism! and giving America a fat chance at becoming a cool country.
