OBAMA!!!

It always delights me to discover a bunch of cultured rednecks. The kind who choose their hunkering, who build their houses out of recycled material way back off the roads, who serve grilled sausage and avocado dip, who teach you about the civil rights act over the second bottle of beer, and yell wild curses at the TV when bad politicians appear on the screen. We cheered so hard when they called Ohio blue. And Virginia. We had barely dared to hope, I think, and this new feeling of PRIDE - in my country, in my state - is very nice.
