[RoyGBiv]

1. Dean SCREAM!!!!!! n/t

:kick:

[jbond56]

16. recording

Recording bushes concession speech. Converting it so it can be played on my Zaurus PDA. Then playing it over and over showing it to everyone near my person.

It will be awesome.

[ZombieNixon]

27. I like that one.

I think I'm going to do that, too. Only I don't have a PDA so I'll convert it for my laptop. I'm going to take my huge speakers out of my car and play it at top volume in my government class.

[progdonkey]

59. I'll convert Kerry's acceptance speech and Bush's concession speech...

... into wave files, and use a clip of Kerry's as my sign-on, and a clip of Bush as my sign-off.... :D

[warrior1]

2. Have a good cry.

shit I feel like it right now...I'm over stressed...

[sweettater]

30. I'm with you

A very good cry. I am on an emotional roller coaster. Plus I am scheduled for a colonoscopy tomorrow morning so no eats and assigned to the toilet. Thankfully my computer is only a room over from bathroom. x(

[twenty2strings]

61. have a democratic party!

:bounce: hint: newton county ar. is willie's grassroots central. i predict red to purple to blue. kerry edwards signs exploding onto scene. the fear is gone, and believe me it was BAD for a while. yay! we've got some good people here in bigdog country.

[desertalien]

78. I just want you to know you have company.

Won't let myself stress cry only allowed to cry with joy.

[Iris]

Me, too! In fact,

I was listening to Air American this afternoon and they started talking about electoral votes and the commentator said "If this holds, John Kerry is our next president." I just about cried then just hearing the words.

[2bfree]

89. Me too,

I am a bundle of nerves and will probably have a cry no matter who wins. One will tears of joy and the other tears of deep sorrow.

[smbolisnch]

145. Ditto on that......

And of course, call my repub parents to remind them their golden boy just got :spank:

[GOPNotForMe]

92. Word.

[THUNDER HANDS]

4. exhale

[irancontra]

5. breathe out.

[swag]

6. Check to make sure that I heard right. Then check more sources.

Then wait a while more and check more sources.

Then I'll check to make sure that I heard right.

Then I might start to smile a little bit.

[CitySky]

120. That's the first thing I thought too.

Might take me a while to realize it's true.

[Longhorn]

7. I'll probably starting crying.

Pure joy and years of frustration will do that to me! :cry:

[kranich]

8. Go to bed and sleep well for the first time in a long time

seriously, when he is elected now we have to find ways to help him fulfill his vision for a better America.

[NewJeffCT]

42. I agree - a good night's sleep

I haven't slept well the past 10 days or so... I can only think it's pre-electon anxiety disorder.

I'll get a great night's sleep, relax on Wednesday & then get to work on Thursday preventing Kerry from being impeached.

[Clinton Crusader]

9. Scream, cry, pop champagne and

play "Dont Stop"

Yesterday's GONE, yesterday's GONE!!!!!!!!!!!

[July]

94. Works for me. That's beautiful! nt

[stray cat]

12. Get a peaceful and relaxing nights sleep.

nt

[funky_bug]

13. Depends where I am

If I'm at the headquarters, I will scream and cry. If I'm at home, I will scream and cry. The difference between the two is the general state of inebriation I'm in at the time, and whether or not I will scare my cat, or embarrass my husband.

[Minimus]

14. call my family members and rejoice!

[isrealpackard]

15. Cry

123. oooh. go johnny go is a very nice touch. i know it will be good and loud!

[chaumont58]

23. I think I am going out to my car and honk the horn

I remember back during the bicentennial, all the church bells rang at a certain hour on July 4, 1976. Its too much to ask the churchs to use their bells for this occasion. So many of their faithful are bushies, but hopefully, freedom will ring, again!

[Misunderestimator]

36. Oooh... that's good.

Unfortunately, there's a cop who lives across the street from me... might not be a good idea to wake up all the old farts here.

[TexasChick]

24. Go out on the street with a sign that says "America and the world are

saved!" And, then, that night, sleep well for the first time in 4 years!

[OneMoreDemocrat]

31. Begin to worry that Bush won't let us get...........

On edit, I'll also bust out my sign which reads thus:

"HEY JEB! DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT IT!"

[Benhurst]

46. Put on a pot of coffee and wait to see

how the networks respond when Fox News announces via BREAKING NEWS that absentee ballots have made Bush our new emperor. If they don't take the bait, I'll go to bed.

[beyurslf]

47. Scream like a maniac and jump around and holler and drink! Then watch for

the concession speech!!!!!

[hobbit709]

48. first thing

even though I'm a diabetic, is make myself a drink. then I'll probably scream loud enough to wake the dead.

[riverwalker]

49. wish I had some fireworks

to set off and light up the sky. Or maybe run in the street kissing sailors like on VE day. ;)

[kodi]

50. telegram the White House: "Dear Mr. Bush: Please go home. Now."

Seriously. It will cost about $15.00 but I can tell you it will be the most satisfying $15 I have spent since that rainy night in Bangkok in '71.

[i_c_a_White_Ghost]

51. f*ck the please, just get out!

[kodi]

53. manners are free. humiliate the guy and he might start another war

bush is a nut case. he should not be within a mile of the nuclear trigger. dont push him further he might go postal on us all.

[Malva Zebrina]

52. Cheer and cheer--then wait to see Bush concede

and lmao at him. Probably scream at the teevee for him to get out of our house now. Think he'll smirk? Betcha he will try anything to get out of that humiliating moment. Betcha he tries to spin it--betcha he tries to enlist a thousand lawyers to prove he did not lose, Betcha he tries for a recall in more than one state. Betcha he smears Kerry---what sweet revenge it will be to see him up there admitting defeat. What sweet revenge it will be to see him lame duck and limp until the inauguration.

[littlehammer]

54. I don't know

to be honest with you. I think I will just be overcome with relief. Will I cry? Maybe. Will I jump up and down? Maybe.

I can tell you on Wednesday I will start looking to 2006, our works not done and we have a bunch of work to do. We as Democrats need to come up with a "contract with America" and take back our country. It's going to be a slow process but when Edwards is sworn in come 2012 I want the whole ball of wax in our house. The senate, The congress the SCOTUS.

[Cooley Hurd]

55. Bush will NOT concede. He will NOT attend the Inaugural.

Mark my words...

When Kerry is declared winner, I will smoke some weed, dance, cry and release 4 years of anger and tension in one 10 minute fit.

Then, I will smoke some more weed...;):smoke:

[dhinojosa]

56. Thank every american out there.

It will take alot of work to undo the mess this administration has done, but it will be the first step of what is necessary to do so.

[drdigi420]

58. Run outside and declare loudly to the world that....

THE WICKED WITCH IS DEAD!!!!!!

I want to bundle up, go outside in the cool air, and walk around the sleepy neighborhood streets, look up at the night sky, and just feel tears of gratitude on my face.

After that, I will start hunting down the American War Criminals--each and every one--and do everything in my power to ensure that federal charges are brought against them, no matter where they are hiding. Anyone care to join me?

125. Smile

I think if Kerry is declaired the winner, its safe to say the media will dead sure of the result. I will be very glad to know that there will be no more unjust wars, no more lying to advance the prusuit of said wars, that peace will be a reasonable goal for the world and that american can maybe once again not be seen as bully looking for a fight. my group thats meeting to watch the returns and bite our finger nails here in duval county florida will toast the 44th president-elect with a round of fine bubbly and wishes for good things to come.

I will holler louder and longer than I did in October of 1991 when the Minnesota Twins won the World Series. If I'm home I'll scare the cats but they'll have to deal with it. Then I will grab my big flag and get in my car and drive around with my big flag flying out the window and honk the horn and yell some more. Maybe I'll drive out to the 'burbs where the Republicans are and honk the horn and scream especially loudly. Then I'll go home and drink a bunch of whatever I've got and go to bed and get a decent night's sleep for the first time in months.
