He did it. Obama won the presidency last night. This was definitely the most I have cared about an election, and it was thrilling to see my guy come out on top.
Its night like last night, where New York really shows its colors and its all pretty amazing to be apart of. The city of millions having one voice? Wow. Hearing the cheers from the other parties surrounding us, only made us more excited. And that excitement spilled to the streets, and filled everyone with the hope for change, well, that Obama has made us believe in.
I am EXHAUSTED from a night of celebrating. Like any other event, NYC does election night well...or at least when we win. Given the Democratic nature of MOST NYCers its not like when the Yankees or Mets win, because only half of the island is cheering, last night the ENTIRE CITY was ONFIRE FOR OBAMA! The cheers started around 9PM when Ohio was called, and could be heard in apartment bldgs, restaurants, street corners, etc. The momentum just kept building and before you knew it, it was an all out street party!

Its a tremendous time to be an American. Senator Obama, thank you for allowing us to believe!
