A New Day....

I am happy and hopeful and so very proud for us! Four years ago, I walked around pretty disillusioned and pretty peeved at the whole voting process. I know that many people in my state are walking around feeling that way this morning...especially since SC voted Republican yesterday.

A lot of people said yesterday that their vote for Obama didn't count. My vote counted because my little brother serves in the military so me and others like me get the freedom to vote. Lots of women earlier this century were tortured so that a woman like me gets the right to vote.

So it's nice to have hope for our country!

Thank you for voting. I too come from a very republican state..it's almost hard to talk about my feelings in public because there is no one around who agrees with me. So I have learned to keep my mouth shut and vote. We did and we did good! I am so proud of my wonderful country. On Election day, intelligence won! :) Thanks again!
