Barack Obama Elected President

Democrat Barack Obama was elected as the first black president of the United States of America on Tuesday night.

The 47-year-old senator from Illinois defeated Republican Sen. John McCain. Officials said voters came out in record numbers on Election Day — 130 to 140 million people.

The crowd is going wild in Grant Park in Chicago, where Obama will give his first public speech as president-elect.

Obama will be sworn in as the 44th President on January 20, 2009.

Thanks, Blah. Say, how ’bout that Bobby Jindal 2012? heh

Obama supporters – please do not forget – the Republicans had a female Vice President candidate on this race. Whether you love her or loathe her – that, too, is history in the making.

I actually feel sorry for Hillary Clinton tonight. This must be hard.
