While I am optimistic that the country will improve over time...I'm quite nervous about the division I'm seeing today. Granted, it's been less than 24 hours since Obama was declared the President-Elect. But I personally have seen this amount of die-hard hatred coming from the sides... Granted, I'm young, but in the past 3 elections that I have been able to vote in, and the past 8 elections I've been around for, I can't recall it being this bad... Not saying it hasn't been, but still. With the country in shambles right now, the last thing we need is to be at each other's throats...

Tertiary.... I am hearing amazing things too.

But let people rant and ventilate. It's a good thing. Just remind yourself, you can always take back what you never say, let others make jackasses of themselves.

Some of these radio hosts will be living with these mistakes for the rest of their lives.

The ones you have to worry about are the ones who don't say anything.

Order up the popcorn and enjoy the show.

I just got done reading Wicked I can understand how a woman can change over time.

Did McCain talk this bad about his first wife? If I was advising, Palin I would suggest getting at least four of McCain's houses.

The kid at the local lumberyard mentioned the country of Africa and Mrs. Palin today..... and that our new national anthem was....

Comedy knows no limits.

W is being very gracious and has been helping the Obama team prepare for the transition even before the election. Something that Bush did not receive from the disgusting Clintions.

Ohhhhhh ahhhhhhhh check out this conspiracy theory.

did it seem like the Clintons were helping McCain and the Bushes helping Obama. Maybe just maybe the Bushes knew what was going on.

another one. W loves history, refers to it offen as to how he will be judged in the future. He has never let the poles "get to him". I have yet to understand why. As a young man I remember the Jimmy Carter's face change horribly as events dictated his presidency, Reagan seemed to dictate events. Bush 1 was no Reagan. Clinton just chased tail. It would seem that GW most certainly dictated. Most of the great presidents do. T

The president is privy to information. You're not stupid with information. Obama gets this information now. Did Bush know change was coming?
