An American election – part 3

Author: Hoger

It’s over. Officially.

We spent the last four hours sitting in a dodgy New York bar with an Australian friend of ours watching results come in. While I was nervous for the first hour or so, I got increasingly excited as we saw the results in Pennsylvania, Virginia and Florida.

McCain’s concession speech is gracious but uninspiring. The Obama speech may be different and I wonder whether he’ll focus again on th slogan he ran on: “Change we can believe in.” A great theme to centre a campaign on.

Now it’s time to deliver.
