I am from NC and lived there most of my life until about a year ago. I have always been proud to say I was from NC until now. I'm in shock, I can't believe the people from NC are falling for Obama act. What is wrong with you guys? What are you thinking? Are you really that stupid?

So far so good for me. This is the most we've needed a change of government since I've been alive. I think the economy has taken the front seat as the most important issue we face today. If we can only stop the dollar from it's constant decline in value.....

This "long drawn out process" from the DEM side is pure genius. It makes everyone who participated feel like their votes counted. By the time fall rolls around John McCain will only have a month or two of publicity compared to Obama's year long fight for the DEM nomination.

Congrats to Perdue and Hagan as well...

Because I am involved in the Run To Vote 2008 I am keeping my thoughts somewhat to myself for respect to everyone that was contacted. I have a bit of excitement to a couple that have won...they have reached out to these Teenagers and nice E mails returned in support. I have been learning a lot of who says certain things and stands behind them...the old saying proof is in the pudding *smiles* They got my vote because of that!!!

Now onward...GOLO let's Please show our support to www.runtovote.com

I do not anticpate riots if he loses. But I also think he will win. I would have thought that for the sake of the democratic party one of them would have hung it up by now. They lessen their chances of taking the White House, the longer this goes on.

Yes I voted, and yes, I'm pleased with the outcome. "the press ALWAYS swoons over the most liberal candidate" This may be true for ONE conservative group, but if you average all of the leading conservative thinktanks' assessments of "liberalness" Hillary is more liberal than Obama.

Voted early... hoped & prayed for the best. Yesterday's results aside, I am afraid for this Nation - never more afraid - and hope not to ever see another election like this one.

Those who don't pray had better start rubbing Buddha's belly or whatever they do... we are ALL going to need all of the help we can get.
