We came; we saw; we kicked their a$$. I am happy.
I have spent countless hours the past few months working toward this night and this outcome. I am overjoyed. That said, I've missed y'all but y'all can't begin to realize the pressure that we were under. It was tough but we made it. We also showed some D.C. types that we we know how to play hard ball and deliver the goods here in the heart of it all.
I just got home from our team's "watch party" at the lovely home of our hostess with the mostest -- Mel who prepared us a glorious feast and adult libations. There were hugs all around when Ohio went blue and even more when our county went blue. Mission accomplished!!!
I learned that one of Mel's best friends is an old friend of mine as is her husband (who is battling cancer) and I made sure that she had my phone numbers if she wanted to talk. I also got to know a few other of our team members better and that was fun as well..
Tomorrow. I'm heading to HQ to see my gals: Brittany, Steph, Morgan, Jess, and Norrie i.e., the organizers who kept us all on task. These lovely and intelligent young ladies are harbingers of the future of this country and trust me when I tell you that our future is bright if these ladies are in charge.
I am happy. I learned a lot, met some wonderful people, and hopefully preserved or laid the foundation for positive change in this country . . . until the next time we're under attack.
I need a rest but I'm going to try to get around to visit and get back to blogging asap.
Happy Blogging!!!!!
Kay
Kay, THANKS for your contribution to Obama's glorious win!! You must know all of your bloggy pals were thinking of you last night!!
ReplyDeleteYa done good. We all done good!
ReplyDeleteI'm SO happy that Obama's back Kay. I can't thank you enough for all your hard work to help get him re-elected. I thought about you many times last night when they talked about the standings in Ohio....you should feel very proud that you were a part of it. I can't believe I stayed up until the very end...but I was feeling so good at how things were turning out that I had to see everything. Great speech by our President...classy guy. ~Joy
ReplyDeleteThank you for all you hard work and dedication. You and your co-workers rally made a difference.
ReplyDeleteYeah -- how about that!!!! Thanks to you and the many folks like you -- it happened. --- barbara
ReplyDeleteIt is still hard being a Dem in Texas. At least my county (Bexar - San Antonio) went blue.
ReplyDeleteGood job, Kay. We here are also relieved though a bit cautious. Wait and see. But no doubt--Obama is definitely more reassuring than Romney. I am glad this was one of the few times where the guy we voted for got in. Yipee!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI agree with Wally and I also thank you for all your had work and dedication. You did good. :)
ReplyDeleteYOU did it! It all paid off, now get some rest!
ReplyDeleteI was thinking about you last night, and so happy for you
ReplyDeleteCongratulations, Kay, you sure did kick their A$$ and we here in PA did as well.
ReplyDeleteHere's to four more years and better times to come!
A well-deserved rest as am sure you worked hard -- results are very rewarding. Calif. came through but that was expected. You were deep in the thick of it in Ohio and the area where you live, so "thanks" as I'vbe said before.
ReplyDeleteThanks for all you did.
ReplyDeleteThank you to all of the hard working people who brought Ohio in with Blue. You did a great job, Kay. You deserve a long rest.
ReplyDeleteGreat Job ... thank you for your service back ther in Ohio.... I thought of you last night also.. thinking how everyone must have stood up and screamed when it came across the screen.. RE ELECTED!!!!
ReplyDeleteLiving in a blood red state of Idaho.. it was hard to really celebrate.. so many people who are such downers, and hateful... on Facebook I put .. win or lose be gracious.. remember it is your friends and family who have your back day after day.. but all I heard and read was such nasty remarks.. But I don't care.. my husband and I are thrilled.. 4 MORE YEARS..YAHOO...
Living in a bright red county in a red state (Texas), I thank you so much for your efforts on behalf of all of us across the country who wanted to see President Obama reelected.
ReplyDeleteYou Ohioans rock!! Thanks so much for your work.
ReplyDeleteWe couldn't have had this great outcome without folks like you. Thank you.
