I am a combination of nervous, excited, optimistic and I have to admit

will be glad when President Obama is re-elected and we can get back to the business of governing America

I won't allow myself to be too over confident because I was SO confident in 2004


I truly believe POTUS will win, but won't be satisfied until it is over!

How about you?

Yes, there are thousands of "boots on the ground," but black box escapades cannot on be monitored on the ground. They cannot be monitored at all.

I'm positive Obama has the numbers to win. I'm not certain they will all be counted. Too many ReThug SoS. My heart won't rest till it's over a Obama is announced the winner.

It was my first time voting (22yo at the time) but I learned from that heartbreak that at the end of the day all I can do is cast my one vote. These ridged voting machines we have down here in Texas makes you even more cynical about the whole process. You hit the cast ballot button and the screen says "Your vote has been cast you may now leave. Thank You!" No paper nothing. It makes my stomach turn at the thought of the image of Romney's mug on the tv screen with the word "President Elect" . I'm still fairly confident the President is going to win tomorrow. Hakuna Matata (no worries)

I will be so glad when President Obama is re-elected tomorrow night so that I can let out a huge sigh of relief.

I feel like I have been holding my breath for 2 years.

I have long thought a presidents term should be 6 years no re-ups. Just some Bad ASS governing!
