I was hoping an Obama victory would mean no more insipid pop spirtuals from “will i. am” but alas it was not to be. Maybe Nader right’s it doesn’t matter which half of the Republicats win!

I don't think I have ever felt protective of a politician before, but at that moment, I was thinking, where the hell is secret service, and why aren't there like 20 of them on stage? Now I am going to be nervous the next 8 years.</p> I did have the worst thought as Obama finished his speech and was waiving to the crowd: I kept wanting him to get the hell off the stage so no one would take a shot at him.

The city looked amazing on TV with the USA lights in the skyline. I actually cried watching all the people on CNN and seeing the energy. I wish I could have been there-what a great place to call home.</p> I grew up in Chicago and I have never been more proud of my city and my home state as I was that night.
