Obama Love!

How can you not be madly in love with this man? Although I am surprised I am. I was a staunch Hillary supporter until the very end. I was suspicious, curious but wary of the smooth talker in him. Also, he was clearly inexperienced and his religious leanings bothered me.

But as he won this fabulous, long drawn out election and kept his calm at every curve ball, I went from being a naysayer to a loyal supporter( although mind you, like many immigrants I still cannot vote in this country).

'No Drama; Obama symbolizes everything "cool". Women dream about men like these. Calm, Collected, Composed. I have rarely come across men like these in my real life. My father is very calm but he has his foibles.

Today was a big day as President Elect Obama was sworn in. His inauguration speech was just like his previous ones, brilliant and stirring.

As I watched the parade and the swearing in and the ceremony, it just felt great to be living this moment even if it was through a television.

Now we watch and see how he governs the free world .

But one thing is assured, I remain a loyal Obama supporter.
