Nice.

I put on Marvin Gaye's version of the National Anthem right before we went out to vote.

That's a great idea. We were just listening to it the other night. I told Alexandra that if Obama wins, I think he should make that the Official version.

Makes me think of that song by Sam Cooke.

Crystal,

Yeah, Sam's version is probably THE classic version, and I almost posted that one. But I really thought Al did a great job on the song, and I liked the "live" dynamic.

I dig Al Green.

So weird to have someone i voted for actually win - it's been a long time.

I know exactly what you mean. And my excitement the last time (1992) didn't last very long. I'm hoping - and believing - that this time the excitement will last a little longer.
