It’s here!  It’s really finally here!  And I don’t know ANYONE who is not thrilled to have this election over!  Thankfully, Derek and I voted last week to avoid the long lines.  I still wish I could have “wrote in” this guy…

I am still of the humble opinion that he would have been a better presidential choice, or for that matter, VP choice, especially considering the economic crisis and his background.  But, alas, it was not to be…I’m still sulking though.

Instead I had to choose between these two…John McCain (R) or Barack Obama (D):

Although it is a looonnnnggg shot, I still believe that there is a chance that the polls are not reflecting the true voice of America and my candidate will see victory.  But as is noted previously, my candidate has lost before. 🙂  We’ll see!

But it will be historic.  We’ll either have our 1st African American president-elect, or our 1st Woman vice presidential-elect.  And it will be interesting – I love the election coverage and am planning on a late night tonight!

I was thinking this morning, that as painful as it is (and it is painful!), what a great process to be a part of.  I’m grateful to live in a free country.  I’m grateful to have the right to vote.  I’m grateful to live in a nation where the people choose their leaders.  And although I know the process is far from perfect…we are still SO blessed.
