Obama Gets the Vote: History Made Tonight

What a historical night we are living through tonight. The people of San Francisco are on fire.......from my balcony, I can hear people screaming and shouting through the streets celebrating Obama's victory.

I went to a couple of election parties tonight. McCain's speech was dignified, respectful, touching and authentic. Instead of playing politics, he came into his own and became real, a rare moment during the campaign.

When Obama read his speech, tears were shed and it only got worse when Biden came out onto the stage, followed shortly thereafter by both sets of families. Chicago is also on fire and no doubt every other blue state. His victory makes history not just in the U.S. but worldwide. Take a look.
