Hey now everyone. The 2008 election is now history, and boy what history it set. Whether one supported or voted against Obama, it is impossible to recognize the significance of this election. With a resounding victory in electoral votes and over four million more ballots in the popular vote, Barack Obama will become the 44th President of the United States on January 20, 2009. You can read my thoughts on the significance of this election here at Helium... and if you'd like to say something about the article, love it or hate it, feel free to come right back to this FanNation post to…
