Yeah this was worth staying up for. Glad our bad feeling was so so wrong!

That Mccain who just talked would have made a good VP. Classy speech.

Very much so. Yawns. Can't quite hold out for the big man's speech, but dare say I'll catch it tomorrow.

About 15 minutes to go so I'm hanging grimly on. Hoping he is a man of meaningful but few words!

Oh man I hope you were awake for that - Gore Vidal just left Dimbleby totally lost for words! XD

Yep, once he got started I totally forgot about being desperate for sleep. There was many overcome Americans on my IM list, I was feeling a bit emotional myself. Keeled over at somewhere gone six and was back up at 11. Am going to sleep like the dead tonight!

I keeled over at 3:46 so missed the victory and only woke up for the last 30 seconds of the speech. *G*

I woke up to hear McCain's speech - he actually sounded gracious! But Obama's acceptance speech was something else - a really good way with words!

I think it's when you go and listen to his speeches you start to see what a change he is from most politicians around him. That said, if McCain had campaigned like that, I wonder what the result would have been.

I almost wish I had stayed up, but I think I'm just as glad to wake up to this kind of news :-)
