Back to edit this...WOW....a lot have been here since I first commented. THIS image has to be one of my favorites that you have posted. I'll bet we see this on EXPLORE FRONT PAGE.
The look on both of your faces.....PRICELESS.
MY THOUGHTS FOR THE WORLD TO SEE....and hopefully put their 2 cents to it...

Love it.
I like how they call Barack an "elitist" look at the bottom oh his shoes! Compared with hundreds of thousands spent on Sarah Palin

Man...those worn out soles are a real testament to the hours and days and weeks of effort President-elect Obama has put into this campaign.
I am sure he is not going to let up even one bit, because the real hard work starts now.

Congratulations indeed. Very composed in front of the cameras -- reminiscent of Reagan, in that way. Next, don't screw it up. :)
