this is heather tinnaro, of the teeny tiny blog future 26 calling the great state of NC and the presidency of the United States of America for Barack Obama. i don't have the words to express my intense joy at watching his acceptance speech. my eyes welled up, and my heart beat fast in my chest. (as opposed to my left kneecap...) i have hope again. i know that, in the immortal words of the late molly ivins, "you got to dance with those what brung ya," but i believe that our president elect will remember that it was WE THE PEOPLE who brung him, after all.
good night, and god bless.
and THANK YOU for voting.
note: mr. mccain's speech was also gracious and conciliatory. i respect that.
About Me
- Heather Tinnaro
- Asheville, North Carolina, United States
- It will be a few years until I can step back on board with an eye to staying a while. At the moment, I still live in the mountains of North Carolina, in a small house with a piano in the parlor and a teenager in the good bedroom. But it is time to start dreaming. The nest is preparing to empty, and when it does, I should be ready to fly. Or float.
