Yep. You pretty much got it right on. But I am emotionally prepared. I've survived it twice before. As far as what I'll do? I will watch as the Republic continues to spiral toward complete breakdown. What else could I do?
Interesting times.

What really worries me is McCain’s own running mate saying that Obama pals around with terrorist. As in plural, not just Ayers; who are these other terrorist Palin and why are you telling this to large crowds of people who are already welcoming anti-Obama hysteria? Do they honestly think the race baiting and fear mongering just goes away? The fact that Obama is half African American only helps to bring out the crazy, hate rallying bigots. I’m really disappointed that McCain’s camp is now trying to make him out to be some socialist/communist because of an aggressive tax plan McCain himself supported and defended in 2000. I really hope the anger and animosity caused by these tactics cools down and people come to their senses if Obama wins. I fear though what some may do when they turn on the news and see that Obama has won the election.
As for Obama supporters I believe there is also room for hysterics if he looses. Many minority groups are so excited to see a biracial president, if what they have fought so long and hard for (before Obama even showed up) does not come to pass who knows how they will react? Especially if they think the election has some how been stolen from them.

I'm confused, are you defending the slander the GOP has spouted about Obama? Do you believe only Obama supporters do not believe the GOP? Anyone who has the time to figure out the facts can easily tell that 90% of it is not true, and 10% of it is skewed. Obama does not pal around with terrorist, he is a US citizen, he is no more a communist or socialist than John McCain who supported the same aggressive tax Obama does (and said so on tape) in 2000, by the way Obama's tax plan isn't even that different from Regan's.
As for those who claim he is racist because of Wright or was motivated into politics because of some Marxist agenda that I can not contradict, everyone can base their own opinion on the different evidence presented. If you believe those things and they worry you then don't vote for the guy.
