YES WE DID!

WE DID IT!

Last night we realized a dream, impossible in scope, staggering to the imagination.  We elected a person of color as the President of the United States of America.  We returned a Democrat to the White House.  We beat the most venal, incompetent, and morally bankrupt political machine in modern American history.  Most importantly, we raised up a great good man to help lead us through the unprecedented challenges ahead.  We did this, all of us, the millions and millions of us across the country, buoyed by the ardent hopes and best wishes of billions more around the globe. 

The day after the election four years ago here in Birmingham was one of the dreariest, wettest, ugliest days on record.  Our hearts may have been as heavy as the skies that day, but out of that darkness we came together and formed a bond that has since enriched our lives and sustained our hopes all the way up to this morning, where we beam like the morning sun.  We can all hold this moment, and each other, close for the rest of our days.  We invite you to post your thoughts at our website.  We get a lot of readers, but not many posters.  Not very many places for OTMDems-types to visit & share on-line, so please let us hear from you here!

“We were asked to read something saying [Obama and Democrats] were against protecting children from danger,” this worker said. “I wouldn’t do it. A lot of people left. They thought it was disgusting.”
