I sure hope it's going that way. Part of me's afraid though that people lied in the polls, too cowardly to admit they're not ready yet to accept something else but a white male president. This is all looking too good.
oh, i'm sure there was definite bradley effect (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bradley_effect) going on yesterday (for example, polls in georgia on monday had mccain just a few points ahead, and then the next day he won by like twenty points or something). but thankfully there were even more people who really believed in change (or were just thinking, "wait a second... i'm going to vote for another republican when the current one has got the country this messed up? fuck that shit! *votes obama*")
