Relief

After several long months a stress and doubt, my hope and my belief in America has started to be restored. At 5:15 am this morning, in a dining room in a hostel in Cotonu, Benin, I saw confirmation that Barack would become the 44th President in the US. We still have a lot of work to do, but this is a huge step in the right direction. Thank you so much to the campaigners who ,ade this happen, especially Kristin, Alliy, Brandi, and Juilien. You guys are freaking amazing, I can't wait to talk to you all. Anyways, take care everyone, and don't think that this movement ended last night. It's only beginning. Peace and love.

AND he won NC after cliffhanger counting of provisional ballots, etc. It's a revolution but the hole the Bushies have left him to dig out of is huge and we can't expect instant results. Sen. Dole is out, replaced by Kay Hagan, a good Presbyterian (Dole ads attacked her as godless b/c some PAC that had some atheist in it gave her some money in the last week). So the changes are huge everywhere. KIT and finish strong over there!
