    Fingers crossed for McCain, the only candidate who can bring REAL change instead of merely talking about it

    Yep, Obama wins, and with some clout too - I hope he does some radical things.

    -It will be interesting to see how effective a tax and spend method will be on fixing a slumping economy. huh.gif
    -As Biden pointed out about a month ago, it will be interesting to see how Obama handles it when North Korea, Iran, Iraqi insurgents, and al qaeda all test how hard or soft an Obama government will be. There will probably be an international ********* being handled by someone new to being a player on the international stage.
    -It will be interesting to see how Obama handles Iraq in general.
    -It will be interesting seeing who Obama picks for his cabinet.
    and
    -After the debacle that was the Bush presidency and having gotten their arses kicked in this election, it will be interesting to see how the Republican party will re-allign its platform and core values in the next couple years.

    Did you actually vote at the polling place? :eek: How long were you in line for?
    Yeah, same place I voted during the primary. I voted early about 5 days before the election and only had to wait about 20 minutes.
