MyDD :: I am so psyched!

I am so psyched!

by wasder, Sun May 18, 2008 at 03:07:56 PM EST

After reading all the doom and gloom and bickering in the rec list and elsewhere on this site, I just need to post a thread talking about how, after the most talked about, scintillating and envigorating primary season in my memory, I am so excited and pleased Barack Obama will be the nominee of the party. I refuse to get caught up in the back and forth between Clinton and Obama camps anymore. I just want to breath in and think of how proud I am of our party, and of our nation. I have never before invested so heavily in a candidate, either financially or emotionally, and it is all paying off. I really hope a few other people around here can join me in experiencing a few moments of real, unadulterated, non-cynical joy at the prospect of President Obama taking the oath of office next January. Won't we project such a different and better face to the world?

There are many who agree with your sentiment- even major Clinton supporters are sharing your sentiments (see http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/24687292/)- kudos to you for it.

Hooray for John McCain!

I just wanna say that (2.00 / 1)

This has been an historic primary. It is definitely going down in the history books when a Woman and an African American are the last two standing. Having lived through Nixon and beyond, I am happy and amazed.

accepting McLettuce is like being 9 years old and forced to eat your own cooking

I am thrilled to be able to vote for Obama this fall. Although I have always been political, this primary has brought out the activist in me. I have harassed friends and family to vote for Obama by constantly sending them pro-Obama commercials, articles, etc. (but never sending anti-HRC stuff - its not my style and not helpful).

I plan to volunteer for the campaign in the fall as much as my schedule will allow.

Vote Obama!

McCain = bad Obama = good

I did a lot of cajoling as well, and also stayed away from anti-Hillary stuff. I voted for her in the senate twice and have no reason to start hating on her now.

"Won't we project such a different and better face to the world."

Could there be a worse face than the face of the Bush mis-Administration?

There is no worse face than the one we are currently putting out there, that's for sure.
