Hi Rachael

Rachael says:

Happy Saturday

Dad says:

what did you think of the election result?

Rachael says:

I was inspired by Mc Cain's speech and wish he had been that focused and classy when he was running.

Rachael says:

That would have made the difference for him

Dad says:

I never did hear any of the speeches - was still in airports or airplanes at the time

Dad says:

but I have heard similarly good sentiments from many up here about McCain's concession speech and of course, Canadians are wildly overjoyed at Obama's victroy

Dad says:

Rachael says:

I'm sure Kim is one of those

Dad says:

Jason and I actually watched the election results outside at Puck with Obama volunteers till Obama gave his speech. It was a memorable atmosphere of joy and a self congratulations.

Dad says:
