Fox just showed a bunch of black people in a diner cheering when it was announced on TV that Obama was winning. It was like they were cheering their favorite football team. I’ve never seen that kind of reaction about a political candidate before.

I’m not sure it’s such a good thing, given the kind of stuff that sometimes happens when someone’s favorite team wins. To much volatility.

We cheered big time when the early (eastern) Dakota vote showed the election close and we realized that Daschle was going down.

Imagine what would happen if Obama is the candidate against us and he loses. It would be like the reverse of the attitude when OJ was acquitted. We won't hear the end of it for years. Too bad everyone ignores all the good the Republicans have done for blacks.

The only time I saw that type of cheering was for the OJ verdict...

But this time, I was cheering too! LOL.
