Post Election - Hooray for Obama

AMAZING - 220 years of anglo-saxon names as President (one Celt Kennedy) no Sky's or Stein's not even an Italian - the first Presidential name to end in a vowel and it is a black man - how awesome is that. 

Here's an interesting map of election results from the New York Times about where Democrats increase their vote percentage over 2004 and where the Republicans did.  I think it is fair to say that the places where the Republican vote increased can be attributed to racist areas that don't have enough black population to offset the scared whites.

And he won even without the new knowledg of just how stupid Sarah Palin really is!  She's actually being compared to those idiots that Jay Leno interviews on the streets of L.A.  FOX NEWS of all organizations is reporting that she didn't know that Africa was a CONTINENT - thought it was a country.  Did not know what countries were in NAFTA (I mean seriously there are only 3 countries in North America!)  GOOD LORD!
