Election Day

Boy, am I excited!!! I'm sitting here waiting for my 6:30am babysitter to come so I can go vote before heading off to work. I am watching CNN and seeing tons of folks - BLACK folks - standing on line in Philadelphia and St. Louis and Richmond waiting to vote. Man, I am so proud of my people!!!

To say this is an historical moment in our country is an understatement. I hate to say it, but for many folks, this is the first time they've felt their vote had even a chance of mattering (is 'mattering' a word?).

Gotta go -- the doorbell's ringing!

I voted this morning! All of my friends have voted. Some voted early, and some voted for the first time. I'm very proud. This election has changed so many things.
