Election 2008
Wow. I can honestly say that I’m proud to be an American. Good job, voters! Now let’s put the campaign behind us, shake hands, and move forward!
On the other hand, Prop 8 seems to have passed, striking a blow against human dignity and equality. Sigh.
We watched the results with Bob and Chloe, coloring in our electoral college maps as the results came in. It was a thrilling evening!

Florida had the equivalent Proposition (2 I think) – I’m guessing it passed there too. Devastating, and quite unbelievable really. People still think that way?!
But on the other hand, YAY! Seeing that little tick next to Obama’s name gave me goosebumps. I’m finally coming out of the closet. Yes, I was born, and live in Australia, just like you, but… I have a secret, no longer shameful… I am… and American Citizen. And finally I’m proud to say it.
