When you say you want a fox, is it because you actually want a red panda, like in my signature and avatar? :redpanda:

I have always wanted a little sneaky animal for a pet


May I recommend a Dean.  Or perhaps a McLellan.

As a fervent Obama supporter, I thought Mccain's concession speech was better than B-Rock's acceptance speech.

Those two speeches showed alot. One, was McCains speech, when he said to the crowd that he congatulated Obama, and the crowd boo'd. This really shows that most of the votes that McCain had were of those who did not want a black man as president, not all, but alot. Obama's speech was one that showed the country that the dark ages of racism are coming to a close...finally. The new and next generation has let go of the ingnoraces of our past by judging by race, and it shows not only the blacks, but all immigrants that this era of racism is fading away. Besides, after all we are all one race....... human.

It doesn't show that at all.  I despise Obama.  It has nothing to do with his color.

Honestly, I don't think a lot of Obama's supporters would have taken a McCain victory well at all. I doubt all the boos were race-related.

I disagree with your interpretation of the crowd's response. The boos did show a lack of class and McCain rose above that. I do think the worst thing about the McCain campaign was some of his followers. People see that and they don't want the Anger Management wing of the republican party, the neocon kooks and the religous whackjobs returning to power.

It probably could of helped McCain if he would of kept Sarah Palin's mouth shut as well.

I only made my interpretation of how the crowd reacted by how the people in my general are reacted the next day, and it was for that reason. Only going on what I see. People here are saying, "I don't want a nigger president," and," I am scared that nigger is going to take this country further down." I live in such a closed minded community though. Halfway afraid to openly say that I supported Obama and his cause. Granted I know not everyone is the same, that is why i stated "not all" in that statement.
