Election Night

I'm elated that Barack Obama won. I never in my lifetime thought I'd see the day when a black man would be elected president. It's totally awesome. People in Oakland are literally dancing in the streets.

On the other hand, I'm very depressed that the No on Prop 8 campaign is losing. That so many people hate us. That the polls were wrong -- it looks like some sort of Bradley Effect, where people said something differently than they voted. That it's such an uphill road at this point.

It's 1 am. I really do need to find a way to sleep. Somehow.
