Joining in the LJ explosion...

...because, dammit, it's after 4AM and I'm still awake.

WE WON!

HOLY SHIT, WE WON!

I wanted to believe, but I didn't really think we could until Ohio went blue. AND THERE WAS SO MUCH REJOICING.

Also, because it is in fact that date:

Remember, remember
The fifth of November
The gunpowder, treason, and plot
I see no reason
Why the gunpowder treason
Should ever be forgot

ETA 4:50: Have been trying to watch McCain's speech, but CNN's website is giving me nothing but crowd shots, which is irritating. I think I shall go to bed and see if it's available by the time I wake up again. But, ladies and gentlemen, tomorrow is going to be a beautiful day.

I'm so happy. I couldn't stay up for it (stupid work) so got up in fear and trembling, and there was the news and my flist singing its heart out.

You can come back to the U.S. now, it's safe! :-)

::grin:: Yes, it is! Everyone over here is just overjoyed, from what I can see.
