Scenario: Obama wins. We, his supporters, cry like babies, party like rockstars and/or settle into the best sleep we've gotten in months. McCain supporters explode into random fits of rage and begin cursing the day the word CHANGE was invented.

Scenario: McCain wins. We, Obama Supporters, cry like babies, get drunk like rockstars and/or stay up all night asking who what when where and why the hell the election was stolen...again!? McCain supporters skip around with glee and snuggle into warm beds filling damn good about suppressing the will & needs of the country. They're good at that.

One of these will be the case after tonight. Of course, i'm hoping, praying and firmly believing for a huge Obama win. But after this happens, what do we do next?

You know that CHANGE Obama has spoke so passionately about since Day 1? Tomorrow, no matter what happens, we begin the metamorphosis.

The heavy drapery framed the wall-length bay window in cascades of cerulean blue and pearl as she stared out into the effervescent Chicago moonlight. Her lithe frame was unusually tense tonight as the extreme pressure and anxiety of the past year and nine months was finally within hours of coming to an end. Over. This will all be over.

Today, as diaried by kittycat9, the McCain camp released this statement regarding the Obama camp's response to the nastiness of the latest McCain/Palin rallies:

Barack Obama’s attacks on Americans who support John McCain reveal far more about him than they do about John McCain. It is clear that Barack Obama just doesn’t understand regular people and the issues they care about. He dismisses hardworking middle class Americans as clinging to guns and religion, while at the same time attacking average Americans at McCain rallies who are angry at Washington, Wall Street and the status quo.

Maybe this only bothers me. Maybe not. But I just need ask why does the MSM insist on selling Palin's likeable factor? Why do they keep hammering it in that everyone really really really adores her, even those of us who may not believe her to be a prime choice for Vice Presidency?

Excuse me, but I don't drool over the cutesy routine. I don't find her charming. And she would never, ever be one of my friends and this is why:

And she would know. I mean as we all have been repetively told, she can see Russia!!! And when they're down on luck and counting pennies, Palin secretly wiretaps the roundtable discussions on how to miraculously heal the economy, so she knows how to do it. No witch doctors needed.

I know this has been diaried but my response to this is too long for a comment so I went ahead and posted anyway out of sheer frustration. Sue me.

I'M SORRY...

I REJECT & DENOUNCE...

I AM COMPLETELY AGAINST...

SHAME ON YOU BARACK OBAMA!...

and every other phrase that has brought about an air DEFENSE instead of offense have been used throughout this presidential campaign, especially throughout the primaries. There's nothing wrong with apologizing and making right something that you truly believe was said or done in the wrong fashion. The ability to genuinely apologize actually makes one an upstanding, admirable citizen, if you ask me. Which you didn't but i offered it anyway.
But when the apologies happen time and time and time again, it can be viewed as more of a sign of weakness than that of being a genuinely good person.

Today, Obama did NOT apologize for one key issue and i'm damn happy about it.

Seriously. When i watch John McCain on tv, it takes all of 8 minutes before i'm knocked out, dreaming of better healthcare coverage, lower foreclosure rates, adequate education for our children...you know- all things anti-McCain. For a woman who works 8 hours a day (sometimes 10 when i've eaten my Superwoman Wheaties), enrolled in night classes to finish my Masters, AND half of a very productive and satisfying relationship, sometimes sleep is hard to achieve because my mind is constantly going going gone. McCain has helped in a very sufficient way and I thank him for that.

Now that Sarah Palin...she's no sleep inducer. Not at all. Leave the farm with me and let me explain to you, woman to woman (and the men who were bold enough to click on the title), that Sarah Palin is a very effective fire starter.

I do believe its time to pause and de-stress. Lord knows we need it. Or at least I do. So relax and have a laugh for a few.

Says NBC political director Chuck Todd.

This is what they would like for Americans (especially on the fence Independents) to believe. That Vice President hopeful, Sarah Palin, is the Republican answer to Barack Obama.

I have two words for Chuck Todd and anyone else trying to force that down my throat.

BULL SHIT

Dear John McCain

As I come down off my high fueled by my nominee's brilliant acceptance speech last night, I have to deal with being slapped in the face by you and your "strategic pick" of Palin as VP. I would just like to let you know how and why you have just made the biggest and most costly mistake of your poorly ran campaign.

Instead of harping on FISA, i'd rather take more relevant things into account when I step into the booth in November. Follow me to see why i'll be turning cartwheels after I bubble in beside Barack Obama on my ballot.
