This is What an Obama Victory Looks Like
Attention world!
Used to be Missouri was a bell weather state. Whatever went here, went everywhere. Well, not anymore, as it turns out. Even early in the morning, we still have no word on where Missouri stands on the map. Red? Blue? Does it matter?
Obama is our next president!
In order to secure this historic election, I stood in line for nearly two hours to cast my ballot. Here in St. Louis county, long lines were everywhere. In one black neighborhood in north St. Louis, people waiting in line for up to six hours to vote. In Florissant, also in north St. Louis county, people waited for three to five hours. That’s devotion. Makes my two hours seem small.
Anyway, this is what democracy looks like:

Sometimes a picture really is worth a thousand words. Cheers from the state of Ohio which finally – finally – got one right!
