I never realized how traumatized this country has been by the politics
of the last 40 years until I saw all the photos of people crying over Obama's nomination. We've all been carrying deep wounds, and now we have hope.

1. The entire Dem party was like a revival, a renewal of Hope, a healing..
and a motivation to move this country in the right direction.. AND we stole the flag back.. did you notice that.. we took that flag and made it everyone's.. AND did you notice the seas of color? and Non color at McCain's rally?

3. I believe that convention truly summed up the meaning of family values,
we're all family.

5. Think of the crying that will take place on Nov 4th. Crying of relief that
the GOP has been defeated finally.

6. I don't drink - here's my life list:
Irish Mist: 1 small cordial glass at Christmas 1976, 1977 and impeachment of Nixon

Champagne (New York State): 1 glass at my wedding

Cordial: 1once at a dinner theater

A few sips of wine: to toast my daughter's engagement.


I'll be buying a bottle of Irish Mist for November 4.

If Obama wins, I'll have 1 small glass as a toast.

If McCain wins, I'm drinking the entire bottle!
