So, is it over?  Can I poke my head out now?

(Am I the only one who wasn't really in either camp?  One was too conservative for me, the other not conservative enough.  Not to mention they both often seemed more interested in saying they had a point than the point itself.  Mind you, I don't think either would result in the downfall of the nation, either.)

ETA:  So many posts about celebrating in the streets and I have to drive home in an hour and twenty minutes.  *gets mildly concerned*  *lives close to college area*

I am feeling the same way. alkdsjf;adkf;. Never was convinced either candidate was better than the other.

Better or worse, really.

Ditto for their VPs. (Actually, I think Palin could become a decent candidate with experience and learning to compromise, but that's a long ways off, and I'm still not sure I'd support her. Biden...rubs me extremely wrong.)

E-everyone rubs me wrong, sob. Biggest thing I don't understand is what got people so excited about Obama. Even people in other countries are freaking out all over my f-list. I just... don't think he's all that different from any other politician.

Yeah, pretty much. I think what holds me back with him is that he seems so gung-ho about things, and I like a feeling of restraint and self-control.

Biden has the Violence Against Women Act in his resume. Which doesn't forgive everything but soothes me when he says something dumb. Which is often.

Biden is odd for me. In terms of what he's done and issues, I feel I should be supporting him, but when I watch or read about him...

Eh, he may just rub you the wrong way. It happens. I was completely cold about him-- violence against women act aside-- until I saw a fluff-piece profile on how he coped after his wife and daughter died, and how he and his sons 'learned to love again' and let his current wife into their lives. It was sappy as hell, but I felt like I knew him and liked him more then.

I should note that I don't think you or anyone should love him for this reason-- just telling you about my own reaction.
