"The way to continue our fight now to accomplish the goals for which we stand is to take our energy, our passion, our strength and do all we can to help elect Barack Obama, the next president of the United States."
That's a quote from Hillary Clinton's concession speech. I was a Hillary supporter and I am now proud to throw my support behind Senator Barack Obama. I am originally from Illinois (Chicago suburbs) and recently moved back to the area after spending the last 9+ years abroad in the Netherlands. I've spent most of the Bush administration abroad (yay me). I was so happy to be able to cast my vote in person, although I could have done without the long line (not as bad as what I saw on TV though, gosh!). The last several elections I have voted absentee. :)
