It's exciting witnessing the history... The eight-year-long nightmare is over at last.

What an amazing night!!!

Change is here and it feels great!

Happy here!

Congratulations America!

I'm so relieved and proud at the same time.

Hopefully, it will also be seen as an absolute rejection of the hateful, disgusting Rovian-style of campaign that McCain lowered himself to running, and, with luck, we won't see Republican candidates inspiring their followers to hatred and violence again in at least this generation.

I stayed up all night here to watch the results. History in the making. Congratulations America.

happy that America has her first black president.
not as happy that it is Obama, but hopeful that things will work out.

Happy for the vision of America as the land of hope, compassion, fairness, intelligence, diversity, and dignity.

When President Obama turns out not to be the big, bad boogeyman, are all the people who fear him so much now be disappointed that they no longer have a public figure to ridicule and hate? I can bear their discontent with great fortitude.

Well said Jorjor and darkeforce.

I should have typed "will" not "are"
