Good night. Take care!

Yes, I am going to say one more thing. I will treat him like I did Clinton. I will never listen to him speak. I will never read anything he says in the paper. I will never look at him or read anything he says on the Internet - EVER!!!!
PO, he needs our prayers...We are still Amercians and he is now our president. He needs prayer more than ever and more than any other president we've ever had. I think you will change your mind. We don't know how he will lead. I hope he will be more to the center than we think. The African American guy on Fox is saying that he believes that Obama will be much more toward the middle than he was in the Senate. Let's pray and hope so.

Re: AFF Election Night Thread...

I never expected McCain to be able to win and was very surprised the Repulicans ran him AGAIN.

As I said before I didn't vote for McCain I voted against Obama. I prayed against Obama winning. But you can not go against the will of God.

Now we will need to pray stronger and harder for this president to do the RIGHT thing more than any before!

Good night.

Yeah, ur right. I wish more of our churches were that diverse.

That place is going to go nuts when he comes on stage.

karl rove says all americans should be happy tonight because it shows how far our country has come since the days of the civil rights movement.

That doesn't bother me one bit either...I just wish he were a conservative.

I think I'd read some articles about him in news magazines but knew little about him. I remembered him from the keynote speech at the 2004 Democratic convention.
