Prior to the landslide win in the electoral college, at apporximately 9 p.m. Mountain Standard Time,with two time zones’ polls still open; Senator John McCain anncounced his concession from the race for president. 

About 20 minutes ago, Senator Barack Obama took the stage with his Wife, and two lovely daughters to address the nation, and accept the position as the president elect.

It is now 10:30 p.m. and the precincts are slowely reporting their tallys, at this time the electoral college is at a landslide 338 to 156 for Obama to be the next president… 

As well, the Democrats have obtained at least nine more seats in the house and senate and are currently in control of both. This indeed has been a history making day, as we will usher in a new era with 2009; and inaugurate the first African-American President of the United States.

Good Night, and have a pleasant tomorrow.

The projected victory makes it very difficult for Obama’s rival John McCain to win the White House. No Republican has ever become president without winning Ohio. 

As of 8:00 p.m. Mountain Standard Time Obama has collected a total of 207 electoral votes, and McCain comes in at 127…. right now we can only sit, listen, and pray that the Lord will bring who he wants (not like he wouldn’t – and already has it ‘planned’…), into the office come January. This is the most history-book-writing election of our time, sure hope you all got out there and did your civic duty

Some times we need those kicks with reality. Those days with pain, illness, the fight for life, and the grief of death. As I was browsing through the hundreds of posts spanning the internet about the late Heath Ledger and how dearly he will be miss by his million plus female fans, I came across a blog that really says it best. It is from the blog of a organization called “To Write Love On Her Arms” a group of people who have came together to raise awareness about suicide and self destructive behaviors. This post really makes you think (as most of their site does), it was one of those … man, I really couldn’t have said it better.

God Bless. And Rest in Peace dear Heath.

You never would expect your 11 year old to come home saying “Look what I shot”, and see a pictue of him next to 1050 lb hog that he has killed with a 50 caliber pistol.

This morning Virginia Tech experienced the most deadly school shooting in United States history. 32 confirmed dead and many more injured as a student opened fire in a dormitory followed by a mass shooting in an engineering building across campus. The police state that the shooter is dead but it is unsure whether it was suicide or police fire that took him down.

Police are unsure of his intentions for this mass causality event. But it was said that he was “looking for his girlfriend”

Please keep the victims and their families in your prayers.
