4. Jackeens...for Obama - I simply love you! I understand you are doing this for
your own self and your own excitement - but you are doing a lot of work to provide a service of bringing joy to us who worked so hard and prayed so much to make this necessary change come true.
Kicked, of course

5. Great pictures
So odd to think of having a president who is loved around the world after the last 8 years

6. Is the cardboard Obama holding a pair of glasses in his hand?
I've never seen Obama wear glasses, other than shades.

8. As far as I'm aware, he doesn't.
The cardboard cutout is the only case where Obama is associated with glasses. No idea why.

10. I've told this story before but they had one standing up at a Party City a couple
of months ago, and I watched a little 3-4 yr-old girl drop what she was doing and run toward it screaming "mommy mommy it's Obama". She tried to hug the sign. It just warmed my heart.

12. Thank you again for your pictures
You have shown, through the pictures you post, how fun this election was. There were so many people who were happy to vote for Obama. It wasn't like Kerry where a large number of people were just voting against Bush.

There was palpable excitment with this election.
