The first thing I did upon witnessing last night's election results was call my mom and scream myself hoarse with my wonderfully democratic roommates.

The second thing I did was of course, check Facebook. Only half an hour after Obama's victory was announced, Vanderbilt students were celebrating, rejoicing, complaining and questioning via Facebook status.

A compilation of some of the best:

D.H is Palin 2012.
A.R.U proud to have been born in Illinois.

V.C : America suprised us, and let a Black Man Guide us!

A.K: says Relax everyone! Let's see what he's made of. He can't be worse than the last guy to get the gig and he got voted back in for a second term!

B.B: the american dream is alive, obama 08.

D.A.L says Please leave my country if you have a problem with progress, dont just say you will in your facebook status. You are pathetic.
