      Thank you for getting the girls a puppy! Hopefully it's one from death row at the pound - symbolic of Barack wanting to save America.

      my name is Gloria Miguel Kuzior, I live in one of the most racist town in Ohio. My husband Leslie Kuzior, changed his Party to be a Demo.
      like me . We supported our candidate, who is now the President of this blessed nation. My mother died before the election, But she came to me in mty dream and told me on Monday 27th. of October that Senator Obama would be the new President of America.
      And I am the lady from Ohio who sent him the lucky charm. of the white hand kerchiefs with the prayers, for my JESUS CHRIST put him
      there and he will shine. Fof what JESUS CHRIST bless, no man hurt
      or curse. I LOVE YOU AND YOUR FAMILY MY PRESIDENT OBAMA.
      Gloria Kuzior.

      THIS is it. We've waited SO LONG! YOU'VE waited so long!!

      I have to wonder, what was your reaction to seeing people cheering and honking and screaming and chanting in the streets for you, all over the country.....all over the WORLD?

      It's a new day. :o)
