Indiana? Deep-red Indiana?

[Brigid]

Couldn't believe it when I saw it. Obama won Indiana -- something no Democratic presidential candidate has done in forty years! :bounce:

1. Heck, I think it's only happened TWICE in 100 years!!

And not only did a Democrat do it, but a black guy! So much for thinking Obama couldn't score the racist vote. America made me so damn proud yesterday!!

2. I never thought I'd see it in my lifetime, I get the feeling that...

...someone in his campaign read some of the comments here (and on-line) that said it couldn't be done and took it as a challenge to see if they could do it.

3. I was so happy to see this

I was cheering for you from neighboring state of Michigan. I really wanted to see Indiana go blue.

4. The ground game here was simply amazing

and we benefited greatly from the fact that Illinois was a lock. We had a ton of volunteers come over across the border.
