Live–Blogging: Election Coverage from Philadelphia
11:00 Thread (Holy Fat Fucking Shit)
Did that really just happen? Is our long national nightmare finally over? Have we as a nation transcended racial bigotries, and petty partisan politics, and elected the first African American to the Presidency of the United States of America; while at the same moment ridding ourselves one of the most disgraceful regimes in our nations' history?
If we as a nation could capture a moment in a a piece of amber to be saved, and represented as the best of who we are for a million years to come, it should be this moment.

The baby’s taking his nap - daddy can have a nother drink if he wants to.

Take that baby.
Anyhoo voted already – it’s raining in philadelphia- liek i said the baby’s asleep (MRS> KRESSKIN) so it doesn’t matter if i have another - he’ll be up by the time that I”msober. It not like i’m going anywher - just sitting in fromt of th TV awtching the magnificance of the demoncratic process .

I mean i thinkit ‘ll be christmas but what if I wake up with a camera oup mybutt and an gastrointestinal perforatiomn?
