I never thought Texas could pull a crowd like that for Obama! Cool!

In some online communities I go to, people compared the partying after Obama's victory to the Return Of The Jedi ending in that each represented a major victory over something.
Ironic, because as the cracked.com article "6 most depressing happy endings" argues, the RotJ ending doesn't imply as much of a victory over the empire as it seemed to. Similarly, the Obama victory didn't imply as much of a victory over the far right as it seemed to.

Hurray to the couple that was making out!
I would have done the same with anyone that night... I was so thrilled!

Not too surprising. Austin is one of the few liberal enclaves in Texas.

I LOVE Austin.

Ah Austin, home of The Atheist Experience. Another good reason not to kick Texas out the union.
Nice building. What's the name of this hotel? (That is, if it's a hotel)
