What is your strongest sensation this morning?
Mine is relief. Huge vast relief. This country and this planet may have a chance after all.

3. Well, I went to bed before the results were announced.
So, my strongest sensation this morning was fear before I turned on the TV to find Obama had won. I was terrified that maybe it would be a McCain win.

5. Relief for not having President McPalin, wistfulness that we couldn't have
Edited on Wed Nov-05-08 02:54 PM by GreenPartyVoter
elected a really progressive candidate and that my own party probably performed poorly this time around, concern that Prop 8 passed, and joy that a different barrier was finally broken.

10. The urge to pee?
:shrug:

All kidding aside, I'd say relief peppered with a dash of disappointment over Prop 8.
