"I got a crush on Obama"

Today is the day we have been waiting for and it is getting pretty exciting. I have not been shy about my support for Mr. Obama. The words; "I got a crush on Obama" has been sung by me often. I admire his integrity, his fighting for what he has believed in and for staying the course throughout his life. His life's beginning has been of interest to me as I find that in my work I see people who come from poverty, disadvantage and struggle can go either way - they either brake out of their disadvantage or they continue to find struggle and disadvantage. It depends on attitude. Attitude determines their altitude. My parents and I have had many disagreements over this election. When I was 18 and went to register to vote my dad said, "Don't come home a democrat," so even though that is the party I wanted to join, I registered republican and stayed a republican until 2006 - then I took the leap and became a democrat as my support and friendship with Dina Titus was strong. So, here I am, a democrat, watching the election returns with hope and with a greater excitement than I have felt in quite some time. 8 pm Pacific time....Hello Mr. President Elect Obama! (TEARS)
