Good video. Carries the feeling of the night rather well, which is hard to remember now.
I like the end of the video starting at 3:40 , where Mr Obama talks about the "dreams of our founders being alive in our time" and the "power of our democracy," and how his election is "your answer" to the question of if these last two are still alive...
Such lofty rhetoric, but such a harsh reality that he encountered, filled with brittle partisanship, economic woes, war, and growing dissatisfaction.

What a fantastic night it was! I`m in Switzerland and had to decide wheather to study for the upcoming examination or to watch this legendary moment... I decided for the second thing and it`s been worthy!
BTW: I fell asleep at the University... XD

Great clips from all the networks.
And it was the first election in two decades where the loser's concession and winner's acceptance speeches were finished before 12 Midnight EST.
We didn't have to stay up to all hours of the night this time.

people the likes of karl rove will be punching you in '10 and '12 when the republicans throw the dem's out. boy will we be tired of obama. a lot of damage will have been done, however.

that you for making this. VERY, very good.
but please... someone should've punched Karl Rove to let him know that his politics of hate and fear are over.
i'm lucky because i got to watch the whole thing live at 1:00 in the afternoon because i was in japan when it happened. it was like new years at my school!
