I can't stop crying.

There are just no words and thank you to those who voted and hopefully we'll have another eight years to turn things around for us all.

NOW LET'S ALL FUCKING CELEBRATE!

*THROWS CONFETTI!*

*THROWS A PARTY!*


... well, I'm still thinking about Prop 8 and will be checking up on that. But, this is an incredible step forward.

THANK YOU SO SO SO MUCH!

I definitely think that he had a lot of international appeal and I know that I'm proud as an American to see so many countries overseas supporting this election.

In other words, *BIG, BIG HUGS*

WOO HOO!

Anderson Cooper just said on CNN that they're going to give us an update sometime on Prop 8. I'm guessing it'll come through in a couple of hours. I'm really, really worried about this one. :|

*TACKLES YOU WITH BANSHEE YELL O' JOY!!!!!!*

Prop 8 probably passing has me crying and it's not even official yet. Those percentages better change, dammit. :(

*FALLS TO THE GROUND WITH SO MUCH JOY*

I COULDN'T STOP CRYING! I'M SURE IF I HEAR THAT SPEECH OR SEE PICTURES I WILL CRY AGAIN. :X

Yes, I definitely know how you feel. You know what I'm waiting for? I'm waiting for them to count the remaining polls and then it'll be like this waiting on pins and needles and in the end, Prop 8 loses. I mean, I think it's just the atmosphere of optimism but I'm still hopeful. *sigh*

YESSSS. I GASPED SO LOUD WHEN I HEARD. Oh, man, there are going to be so many Obama picspams on LJ after this. I can already tell I'm gonna be obsessed with those little girls. SO CUTE.

I like the way you think, Aface. *sits next to you to wait out the pin and needles with hope*

I can't believe we did it! I've been so cynical about the state of our politics for so long, and it is such a relief. I'm finally proud of our country again!

But Prop 8... :| WTF.

I think that my tear ducts are completely dry at this point because I have been crying re-reading stories and articles and hearing new ones. It's just a great, great day.

On the other hand, yes, Prop 8. But like I said in my post today, I am optimistic. Those three court cases are on their way and people are protesting in the streets of West Hollywood.
