Obama wins US election
Just thought I'd chuck a topic on here for anyone who's interested or who hasn't heard the news yet.If you go to the BBC website you can see the results and both Obama's and McCain's speeches. You probably can on some of the US news sites too but meh.

I was following this in school during my free periods (so no work was done...). We even managed to get the New York Times' coverage on the overhead projector in Biology. Hugging and cheering ensued when Obama won.
Not that anyone was supporting McCain. We didn't really want to see another old guy as president.
I really liked McCain's speech. It was so good in that it was supportive of Obama even though his supporters were booing him as he endorsed the man who beat him.
Obama's speech was fantastic! I got a real sense of hope from him, especially with his line 'white and black...gay or straight' since I never expected a president of the USA to ever address differences in sexuality.
Go Obama! *starts playing The Touch*
You know I was rooting for her!Originally Posted by dirge
