I had my radio on last night, bit old fashioned yes but thats the next bet thing when you don't have a TV.
I listened to Sen. McCain's concession speech. I thought it was wonderful. He sounded like a real statesman. Grand, honorable, respectful. Had he run his campaign like his speech last night, I think Sen. McCain could have won.
We voted against hate, we voted against divisiveness. Just as Sen. McCain said in concession speech, let the healing begin.
Yes I cried when Sen. Obama was declared the winner, not because Sen. McCain lost, but rather Sen. Obama won, the nation won and hopefully we will have less hate... Yes I voted for Sen. Obama. And I cried when I heard Sen. McCain's grateful honest speech. There was no hate. I wish Sen. McCain well in his twilight years and his battle ahead with his cancer.

The joy of "yes we can" is tempered with passage of prop 8 here in California. I am very very disappointed with its passage. But there will come a time when prop 8 will be overturned. Time marches forward and I hope our social values really do move toward all men are created equal.
