So after 22 months the campaign is finally over! phew. all of a sudden there's like nothing to check online anymore.. no more polls no state by state analysis no sarah palin. SIGHHH! hahaha
lets recap the journey.
it all started 22 months ago when i saw obama's speech after the Iowa caucus.
"they said this day would never come. They said our sights were set too high. They said this country was too divided too disillusion to ever come around a common purpose. But on this January night, in this defining moment, you have done what the cynics said we couldnt do"
haha i remembered as i watched that speech and i said "this man will win the nomination" and my dad said NO. HAHA how wrong they all were!! I'm so glad he won! what a long a tiring journey it has been but soooo fruitful!
and when he eventually defeated clinton (not that she was bad or anything) it was like WOW he could actually be the president! of course i had my doubts during the campaign, when things got harder during the end but as long as he kept fighting i knew the nomination would be HIS!
Although hillary was defeated, she has been one of the best advocates during the presidential campaign, crossing the country for him and speaking on his behalf and even Bill clinton too! i was pretty impressed by the Unity of the democratic party
and when the presidential election came, john mccain sold himself to be the republican nominee, pandering to the tastes of the right wingers. what a waste! the election would have been soooo much closer!
so as we move forward there's sooo much expectations for him to live up to and there will definately be disappointments and setbacks as well but his success gives everyone the audacity TO hope"
p.s APEC Summit is in SG next year!! HOPE HE COMES!!
