YAHOO!!! and I don't mean the website.

I spent yesterday afternoon at our precinct polling place as
a watcher. It was very quiet because so many people (>70%)
had voted early.

We watched the Returns last night and I admit I wept during
Obama's acceptance speech. I can breath again. I feel like
I have been running a marathon, but we won! All three of
"my" guys won; a first for me. I have saved my yard signs.
I'll use Jared's in two years, Obama's in 4 and Udall's in 6.

I know it'll be a long haul for Obama. He can't fix the mess
we are in overnight, but I do feel that he'll be able to start
the process, at least. I watch with anticipation as he chooses
his Cabinet. Where will Hillary go, Cabinet, Supreme Court,
when/if he gets a chance to choose a new justice? Time will
tell.

In the meantime, I'm happy. I'm putting away my lists and
notebooks. My office is a disaster of piles of lists and markers.
