So..... Obama won.

It was a blow-out. I had expected as much. I feel weird though. Everyone else is celebrating in jubilation at the historic nature of this win. All I feel is relief. Shouldn't I be happier? I wanted this so badly. 8 years of Bush have numbed me so much that I feel as if we dodged a bullet tonight. And usually my response to something like that is to take a deep breath and thank the Lord for large favors.
I probably won't be able to fully appreciate what took place tonight until tomorrow morning. Until then, I want to thank everyone on my friends list who voted for Obama. We did it.

My own spin is Ruptured Reality, but that never caught on.
Here's another gem:
"Is it just me, or did anyone else notice Obama's 333 electoral tally for a good bit on the MSM? They didn't show it forever, but nonetheless showed it for a good bit.
Does the MSM have some fascination with numerical messages? Are their evil forces doing so behind them?
The election wasn't fixed...right..."
Quite what's so bad about the number 333 is unclear. Presumably the fact that it's half of 666 is something to do with it. Is this guy saying Obama's half evil or something?

And elsewhere:
"America as we know it will cease to exist. He will destroy it beyond recognition. No wonder it isn't mentioned in the Bible. Obama will make it go away. I am saddened for those who died for the freedoms that Obama will take away. I am sad for my children. Did we learn nothing from Hitler? Obama is Hitler redux. I am officially John Galt and will be shrugging HARD for the next 4 years until the brownshirts come to my home and personally make me knock it off."
Godwin violations and severe paranoia. I need a lie down.
