oh yes we did.
Last time I felt something like this was on November 5, 1992:
Except today is actually even better than that day because I feel like I actually OWN a piece of this election. Just like everyone else who voted, volunteered, gave money, put out a sign, said something positive in spite of their fear and so on. And it turns out that this is a democracy after all. I am relieved not to have to be leaving the country now. I am relieved not be be ashamed for my fellow countrymen and for myself for letting things become so corrupt and awful when I am abroad. I am relieved because the world will be a much better place in 100 years because of what happened yesterday. Bring it on!
