Thank you America....I can unclench my sphincter muscle now. Obama is Prez ! Hooray. The nearer it got to Election day, the more I started to fret that the Republicans might just sneak it. Dust settled. Smoke cleared. Clear skies. It's the right man - the only man - who'll be stepping up for January's inauguration. Thank goodness.

Of course, it's the transition from expectation to the realities of actually governing, we'll be transfixed by now.

That sphincter image ? Not mine, wish it was. Something I purloined from a facebook comment left by an American friend.
