That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Full text of Obama's acceptance speech

And to all those who have wondered if America's beacon still burns as bright: tonight we proved once more that the true strength of our nation comes not from our the might of our arms or the scale of our wealth, but from the enduring power of our ideals: democracy, liberty, opportunity, and unyielding hope.

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"

The road ahead will be long. Our climb will be steep. We may not get there in one year or even one term, but America - I have never been more hopeful than I am tonight that we will get there. I promise you - we as a people will get there.

That is going to be our President, paying homage to a hero of the past while he becomes a hero of tomorrow. The new President-Elect. I can't get tired of hearing them say that.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

What's shocking for me (and it's shallow as hell), but this is the first president I've had that is younger than me. I think I need to go lie down.

You just had to bring that up.

I'm getting the pig!

I think it has sunk in for me that Obama is the new President-Elect... I'm having more trouble truly believing that the attack ads are OVER. Woot!

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

CNN reports that the exit polls are against Prop 8 52 to 48. Good, but too close for comfort when you only have exit polls to go on. But I will note that the precincts that have so far reported in California have a distinct conservative lean. When more results come in from LA and SF, I still feel cautiously optimistic.

I'm almost afraid to go to sleep tonight. What if I wake up to find Bobby in the shower?

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

BBC News has the quotes and reaction shots I wanted.

Go, Britain.

While I think of it, much as I love the Virginia county names, I would like to profess my admiration for Montana's Beaverhead County.

The answer, surely Shrift, would be to enjoy yourself.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

What if I wake up to find Bobby in the shower?

NOOOOOOO!!!! Not a dream. Not a dream. Not a dream. Not a dream. Not a dream. Not a dream. Not a dream. Not a dream. Not a dream. Not a dream. Not a dream. Not a dream. Not a dream. Not a dream. Not a dream. Not a dream. Not a dream. Not a dream. Not a dream. Not.
