It will feel SO GOOD to wake up Wednesday morning knowing the rest of the world
Edited on Mon Nov-06-06 03:03 PM by in_cog_ni_to
knows we are NOT a Nation of FOOLS! I remember how embarrassed I was the day after the '04 election. The world was asking..."HUH? They reelected that IGNORANT FOOL AGAIN???" I remember all the UK articles about how stupid the people of this country are. Well, NOT THIS TIME!

I will be SO PROUD on Wednesday morning, won't you? Maybe the world can forgive us for what these people have done, knowing we are making an effort TO MAKE IT RIGHT WITH THE WORLD? I'm hoping they forgive us.

Edited on Mon Nov-06-06 03:27 PM by in_cog_ni_to
I made 3 hours worth of GOTV calls for Moveon.org and I've donated money to the DNC, DCCC, DSCC, Bryan Kennedy, George Miller, John Pavich, Jim Webb, Claire McCaskill, Harold Ford, Carl Sheeler (asshole), and others I can't think of right now. I have ongoing MONTHLY donations going to Moveon.org and Truthout.org. And you?

9. I'm pissed as hell about his endorsement of Chaffee and I emailed him this morning
and told him so! What a TRAITOR!

Good luck tomorrow!

4. I'm pretty sure the world will be watching to see what actually happens
after the election. If we make real progress toward cleaning up the many messes, we will begin to restore their confidence, if it's same 'ol, same 'ol, they may well turn their backs on us for good.

8. After we win....
we need to air commercials throughout the rest of the world that say, "sorry about the last six years, we will be correcting the problem shortly."

10. Here's to hoping all races will have been decided by Wednesday.
There may be some contested ones looming. But all in all, your point is well taken (and shared).

11. Bush wasn't re-elected in 04 - the election was rigged and stolen and could
happen again when so much $$$ & power is on the line, we won't know Tuesday of the final results, this is fact! (thursday at the earliest)

13. It's a relief to hear such positive thoughts
It is our turn, I do believe. If we can make headway tomorrow, my greatest fears will be overturned and I can believe in the system once again. And laugh at those who insisted there would be martial law and blood in the streets.

19. I HAVE! I DO! Did you read the thread?
I didn't think so.


I feel VERY GOOD about what I've done for this election and the candidates...thank you very much.

I will say though, I really hate being lectured by people ALL THE TIME to do something I already do and have done.

24. Great post; I too hope the US will be forgiven, even though
most of us had zilch to do with what's been going on. Here's to faith and optimism and karma! :toast:
