The difference -- when McCain mentioned Obama & Biden, HIS people booed. When Obama mentioned McCain
the people in Grant Park clapped and cheered.

THIS is why Obama won, people are tired of hate.

2. Because when WE talk about loving our country, we really mean it.
Those booers only love having things run their way.

3. The normal non haters of america, the real christians that believe in live
and let live. The agnostics and atheists who feel that what you believe is your business. Then you have the freeper, the neo con, the greedy, the haters, you and I know them we have seen their work for 30 long tiring years. We can reach out to them but sadly they will chop off the helping hand. All they had was hate, fear, ignorance, it came in many forms, from race to sexual identity, now they will be angry, scared, suspicious of anyone not like them, they will be dangerous, unpredictable, looking to lash out at anyone they fear.

This elections results are not seen as hope by these people, they have been feed a diet of hate, self rightiousness and now what are they left with? They will be like the civil war vets of the south that felt betrayed by their leaders, while they wanted to continue to fight a lost cause, we will see hate crimes rise, we will see more violence directed at planed parent hood. They will not go quietly into the night but will plot and plan their revenge its all they have left.

8. Notice how small his crowd of supporter's were?
Even if he had won, the crowd was very small, very white, very well coifed??? Arizona, a State with many hispanics, and native Americans, yet nary a one in his group of supporters???? Being a Arizonan and familiar with that area, my SO, mentioned that the country-club crowd didn't have far to travel to the McCain/Palin shindig.
