We can, We did, now what?


We did it. Ba-riggidy-rack-ed the vote. What do we talk about now?! I do not have much to say about the "runner up" as they called him last night... wow how um, PC. Try loser, and I don't mean that in a mean way... but "runner up"? This isn't Miss USA (insert Palin joke here). McCain doesn't get the crown if Obama poses nude for a fraternity calendar.

I watched the returns at my friend Marisa's apartment. The same apartment that I sat in exactly 4 years ago when our country decided to... well we all know what happened. This time I brought Apple Pie and Beer, because nothing is more American. Well nothing besides ignorance. How can you go to an election party and not know what the electoral college is? Really? Really. Are you new to the country? Did you just get off the ferry from Ellis Island? Because that is really the only excuse. Although I can say in defense of stupidity, I had no idea that the big rectangle state was Wyoming... but at least I knew there is no state named East Virginia...

Sorry to link to Gawker but it's great to see the chaos in the aftermath.
