Joy is in the air and I'm gonna inhale. This is a good day to be an American. I've never felt that way before, and I may never feel it again, but I'm going to enjoy it while it lasts.
(it bugged me to hear dubyah bleating on in his way, and the 'greatest nation on earth' schtick, but other than that, I'm deliriously happy for y'all, though also remember my own 1997 celebrations with some chagrin. My Obama be better.)
If only one man could right all the wrongs....but I am hopeful and never the world has been more rejoicing about such a change as now. Our wishes are accompanying him and you all.

Love to you.
You gotta take joy when you find it. It never hangs around long.
Pay no mind to the bleatings of GWB and the other chauvinists, Leo--it's not their day, and Dubyah is as good as gone.
I have to admit, I also think a comparison between Blair and Obama is worryingly apt. But what can you do? Expect the worst, hope for the best ...
Barack 'n' Roll!
Oh, I'm all over the joy right now.
Good angle here:

We're getting together a blending party on my Yahoo group to create versions on a theme in honor of the election/Obama.
Working name may be O.N.E for Obama's New Era. We're sussing out the aromatics to use - from Africa, Hawaii, the USA, etc.
Should be fun, and it's nice to see the enthusiasm!
