Wow... (0.00 / 0)
The day is finally here. Wow...

Being in Germany, I get to peek in through television and will be recording both US-American and german stations covering the days events.

After having covered practically every conceivable statistic on this election on my blog over 2 years, it is an unbelievable feeling for me as a centrist democrat to come to this point.

Wow. I woke up at 4 am my time (10 pm on election night) to catch the returns and found tears coming down my face as Obama was declared the winner one hour later.

Today will be just as emotion filled.

I cannot remember a time when I was prouder to be an american than now. Wow, just plain wow...

Feel free to stop by...
