It's not over yet, by any stretch of the imagination.

Obama might not be the Dem nominee, nevermind President..which ya'll are acting like he just won!

1. Sorry, but tonight is a great night for America

Maybe you don't understand what that means, being Canadian and all

[stillcool]

5. I agree....

it's like a frigging fairy-tale...the most inspiring evening I have had in a long, long, time.

14. I probably understand America more than you, eh?

So, fuck off with the "Canadian" bullshit.

If you're not able to admit the simple truth that tonight does not mean Obama is the Dem candidate then just hit the road HOSER, eh?

EH?

2. I am an Edwards supporter, but I do find it remarkable that Obama took Iowa

since Iowa is like 92% Caucasian. That in itself is something to celebrate.

6. You'll forgive us a wonderful breath of semi-progressive fresh air after eight years of BubbleBoy

>ya'll

Do they really say that down yonder? ;)

8. Edwards isn't a progressive? n/t

[melody]

13. Edwards is a progressive ... Obama is a semi-progressive

That's why I said 'semi' -- better Obama than Hillary, imo.

7. It's significant: Iowa is mostly rural, 95% white state...

whether or not Obama eventually wins the nomination, it shows a black presidential candidate can be viable in an overwhelmingly white group. That is a big deal for the United States.

9. 57% under 30 went to vote for Obama.

the young people want a change. Kudos to them.

10. As Fineman said, Obama is a phenomenon, he just is

The win is incredible. The speech was one of the greats in history. I'm amazed any Democrat isn't flying high.

[Hoof Hearted]

11. I'm happy. I was happy with Obama or Hillary. It's a great night.

90% increase in turnout! WONDERFUL. Dems are just gonna kick major MAJOR ass this election. LOVE IT.

12. Thank you!
