Great speeches by both John McCain who was very gracious in defeat, as well as Obama, who was humble in victory.
The day started off with a mid-morning vote at the AmVets hall, where my precinct voted. No long lines. Mostly old people milling around. Since I knew McCain was going to win Kentucky anyway, I voted for Nader. I didn't have to worry about it messing up the status quo as if I were in a swing state.
I am glad that Obama won, but I hope he will move leftward as time goes on. Especially on environmental issues. All told, a great day for America. I hope we have driven a stake through the heart of the Rovian era of us versus them.
