I couldn't hold back once I saw Jesse Jackson tearing up.

7. I teared up around 1 AM finally...
I was watching a youtube clip of the moment MSNBC and Kieth Olbermann called the election for Obama, and the ensuing video of happy crying crowds. And I let a tear drop for the first time in a long time. Our country did really well for itself. It has been a long time coming.
