Olberman just called Obama the political Neil Armstrong, equating his victory to man landing on the moon.

The AP reports McCain just called Obama to concede.

All I can say is it's a pitiful, sad day for America....

(and I welcome all the barbs I know will come from my comments....)

The end of America....as we know it.....

The end of America as we know it isn't a bad thing per se. It is time for our nation to evolve.

MSNBC just called Florida for Obama.

McCain is conceding, his fanbois are booing. McCain would be wise to say, "We dont need you to boo, we need you to go back in time and make me run a better campaign."

It will be interesting to see what happens with actual policy over the next few months and years.

Amazing that someone with no experience, no accomplishments, a racist mindset and a laundry list of subversives & radicals could actually swing this.

Thousands of empty-headed idiots out there waving their arms to the rock star, the Messiah, to save them, to give them something they haven't earned and break the back of this country. You libs wanted "change", get ready to pay for it, and in more ways that one. Me, I'm switching to Financial Self-Preservation Mode starting tomorrow, and I recommend you all do the same.

Fu**ing scary.....that's what you'll see...... You think times are bad today? Tonight just made it worse.

(Remember this is coming from someone that VOTED for Gore.....and Kerry.....)

And if I see ONE MORE report covering the fact that it's significant that an african american got elected....I'm gonna destroy something. Are we voting RACE....or who will lead the country best?

I can't WAIT to see all the grandstanding to come from the "minorities."

(And I'm someone that would have GLADLY voted for Condelezza Rice....had she run....)

Isn't that enough of that already?

You honestly think the world is coming to an end because YESbama got elected?

I don't care for politics, but you might as well have summed up the 2004 election!

While I'm at it... I think both parties screwed up. The Democrats had it in the bag by just choosing a solid candidate. They didn't need to go so extreme as to push two candidates that would be 'firsts' if elected. The Republicans then followed suit by picking Palin (I think they would have had a much better chance my again, choosing a solid VP candidate).

Democrats in control of the congress......democrats in control of the senate.....democrats in control of the white house.

Yeah, that sounds like a good plan for the future of our country......

WTF????

The way I look at it, what we saw tonight is a vote for the future, for modernity; rather than for an outdated worldview of the past, which the failed neocon mindset represents.

Palin wasn't the final nail in McCain's presidential coffin, his campaign had been in ADHD mode for some time before she was selected. Biden was the safest choice possible for Obama, the best pick to reassure the country.

First time voters made up 11% of the electorate, thats pretty special right there.

The question is......what state will that country be in when you return? Your "Precious One" will not leave you much to return to.....

.....more like a vote for the past ("cough, cough....Jimmy Carter") and a vote for socialism......

I think the biggest failure is Reaganomics...followed by our militaristic approach to diplomacy.

Carter was actually a much better president than Reagan, or Bush Jr, and at least as good as Bush Sr.

The long, national nightmare in America will soon be over. Obama is too pragmatic to lead the country to a sharp left, though Congress will try to steer there.

Awww...the minority pities the majority. :cheers::P

I don't pity anybody.

As Martin Luther King said, tears will get you sympathy, sweat will get you progress.

If nothing else this election got people to vote and get involved.

I think Obama is going to be the next JFK...and the anti-Reagan, in that he will start to undo some of the damage Reagan started 30 years ago...

As opposed to getting it blown up after inciting wars with anyone who blinks at him?

Obama has Volker and Buffet backing him on economic policy. Volker, not Reagan, was the one who ended the Carter era stagflation.

As for your socialism comments.... if you're so against socialism. STOP f@#kING DRIVING ON THE ROADS I'M PAYING FOR!

Think Bush is pissed about the massive number of people partying outside the White House? CNN shows it from time to time and it looks like an insane, Obama-happy crowd.

Could be... maybe it will be end of the failed neocon movement. Consign them to the past where they belong.
