Ali Wentworth (husband of ABC News' George Stephanopoulos) on "Oprah":

We watched everything and George was still doing all the anchoring for ABC and as soon Beyonce said "At Last..." George called me at home and he went, "Honey?" and I said "I know!" and we both started crying.

I've said it before, but I'll say it again. When does Karl Rove get his own Sunday Morning Chat Show?

He cried? Did his diaper need a “change”?

[DesertRhino]

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

[machogirl]

how can these people even think that we would consider them “credible” after they out themselves

[IYAS9YAS]

Georgie boy cried? So did I. Obviously for different reasons.

[crusty old prospector]

Ah yes, he’s a man’s man. Probably cried when they turned out the lights on Prom night.

Congratulations on an extraordinary history making election!

We can think back with pride to decades of hard work toward our strategic goal of a big enough, broad enough and united enough labor and all-people’s movement that could overcome the ultra-right blockage to all progress. That all people’s movement has come to life, it is dynamic and it has the potential to keep growing.

The election of Barack Obama and a strengthened Congress creates new conditions in our country. There is now the possibility to shift gears and move forward. This new day requires us to further develop our tactics in order to continue to deepen and broaden labor and people’s unity.

There are thousands of experiences that we all have had in these momentous days, some large, some small, all of which express the enormity of change in thinking and readiness for involvement that is underway and that steels us for the battles ahead.

The tears of joy we all shared as crowds gathered to watch the election results here and throughout the world dramatize the new moment we are in.

"Black Tuesday (no pun, of course).

Perhaps no pun, but no less accurate.

He cried? What happened to objectivity? Oh, sorry. We’re talking about the Mid-Stream Media.

As they say in Brooklyn, “Stephanopolous thinks who the hell he is”. Loosely translated it means, he is a legend in his own mind.

[AngelesCrestHighway]

Did his leg get all tingly also?.....

[rlmorel]

Boy, the frikking testicle lock-box must have been full on 1/20/2009.

[AngelesCrestHighway]
