Today marks the onset of a new chapter in history as the new president of United States is elected. The campaign started since last year, at a time when eyebrows were raised over the prospect of the first black or female president (my last posting after Clinton lost the race was in june).. As Obama has clearly articulated through himself and his speeches, change has come to America. He had a great speech delivered in Chicago and even brought his family on stage. Mc Cain also mastered a gracious concession speech (seriously one of the most difficult speech anyone had to do).

Thought that Obama could have allowed the buildup with the crowd esp at his parting statement..

Draw the parallels between the contents and observe the delivery differences…

Mc Cain’s attribution of failure to himself was stunning (note the smile that flickered with the crowd reaction)..

Now that the election finally comes to a close, the race however, has only begun. America still faces immense challenges ahead of her and the world watches as Obama is now at the helm. The new term may prove most challenging but Obama kicked off on a good start (gearing people’s hopes and reviving confidence.. just watch the stock market reactions!). Hopefully everything else unfolds nicely too! =)
