Re: We have a new president!!!
im not a very emotional person but this morning when i was watching Today in NY cover when they were getting into the car for the first time to go to church as soon as i saw them i started to get choked up.
I really hope he does everything he promises to do and its going to take a while to turn this country around but i really believe in this guy.
FYI i HATE politicians. But i love me some Obama.

I am beyond thrilled. I am so proud to be a part of history and to have gotten the opportunity to see this happen. Even though he was elected over two months ago, I keep getting goosebumps whenever I think about it.
What a great, great day

I also was getting chokeed up watching the coverage of this historical event! I didnt get to hear his speech because i was subbing for Kindergarten and the kids were talking and not paying attention so I had to take them back to class. hopefully i'll be a ble to catch it somewhere else.

I took the day off today not to watch this though. I am a Republican and even though I respect the new President and hope he does a great job, this was just another day for me.

I watched it in the cafe at work.... everyone was in there clapping. I am excited but skeptical. I don't like politics but I must admit when they said that Bush presidency expired at 12 noon I almost cried. I think there was a tear... a happy tear. I really hope Obama will deliver on all that he promises... we need it.

THAT I will admit is a positive thing- that Bush is out. I just hope that Obama can handle the job.

Re: We have a new president!!!
I'm a Republican so wasn't as excited since I disagree with many of his political views. However, I was very proud to be an American in that this point has come in our nations history for a black man to be President. And proud at how our country transfers power effortlessly. I also think their family seems so genuinely close that it made me feel good seeing that part of it all. The girls just are adorable.

A bunch of classes crammed into a classroom with a tv to watch it since only some classes could watch it in the auditorium. It felt so special to share this moment with the kids.

I would have just watched in on my Smartboard with the kids but since they were broadcasting it in the auditorium they told us we couldnt also use the internet - it would mess up the bandwidth or something like that.
