Tonight's sweeping Democrat party victory does have a few positives:
1. It can no longer legitimately be accepted as an excuse by any minority that success can be hampered by the color of someone's skin. That ship has finally sailed.
2. I saw Jesse Jackson crying in the audience tonight. Couldn't tell if it was because he was happy for Obama, or if it just struck him that he's out of a job. Haven't heard from Al Sharpton yet.
3. This is a much needed wake up call for the Republican party. We will be able to compare and contrast what totalitarian Democratic rule will yield. (disclaimer: I know that I told you that I wouldn't root against Obama here. I won't, but along with my hopes is a healthy dose of pragmatism). The Republican party needs to do more to entice youth to the GOP and give them something to cheer about. There is an incredible message in Conservatism, and too often it gets overshadowed by pompous old white guys. We're more than that.
4. Political ads are off the air. I think we can all agree here!
5. Hillary Clinton has a new theme song: "Ding Dong! The Witch is dead. Which old Witch? The Wicked Witch! Ding Dong! The Wicked Witch is dead..."
6. Sarah Palin is going back to Alaska. Please stay there. I'm tired of Hockey Moms, lipstick and the inability to pronounce the letter "g" (I think you know what I'm sayin').
7. We don't have to hear John McCain say "My Friends" anymore.
That's enough for tonight. Onward an upward...

I'm trying my best to be hopeful about the results. However, there is a quote that will ring my head for a long time to come. Thomas Jefferson...
"A government big enough to give you everything you want, is strong enough to take everything you have."
We will have to see how the next few years unfold.
How true...
and now i'd like to entertain ya with some fancy pageant walkin'
best snl skit this season. i will miss snl-the only comedy show with the courage to mock obama, reid, and pelosi.
I love Tina Fey! Too bad she and Amy Poehler are off the show for good now. You know that Fred Armisen is loving his new-found job security with Obama impersonation. I'd love to see a debate between he and Nicholas Fehn! You see, here's the thing... You know when... It's all about... Don't you think it's about time? REALLY?!?
Can we live off of change? I agree on McCain's "my friend" - he & I have never been friends.
I am not ahuge SNL fan but Amy doing that wrap with Palin danced was too funny. I liked Palin but little experience at dealing with the press & big politics showed. McCain has always been too liberal for me. I want to know my liberals so unmask McCain.
I will pray for Obama but he scares me too death. He could be purple & his ideas would scare me. His choice of transition leader shows he plans to bulldoze his way thru the 4 years. I am sad. :(
I know it is rap not wrap. I can not type. lol
