United States presidential election of 2008.

I'm actually going to bed within a few minutes, the reason is because I'm planning on waking up early tomorrow - I'll be waiting for the moment of truth when the media will announce which presidential candidate won the US election of 2008. According to Realclearpolitics Obama is leading the election with 52,1 % while McCain has 44,5 % of the votes so far.

In our Swedish media journalists have been talking so much about Obama and the fact that he will win the election but I'm not sure. Even though Obama has received a lot more "positive" attention through his campaign in the media McCain is still on the hook and it seems like he's got a pretty good chance to win this election too.

I honestly don't know what will happen only time will tell. One thing I do know is that this election stands for a great change in the American politics.

Another important issue one must not forget is whoever of these two candidates who will win this election, the result of it will in fact affect not only the American people but also people worldwide since America is one of the biggest and most powerful nations in the world. I will be very anxious tomorrow morning when I shall turn on the TV to hear the news.

Like I said, we'll see what happens tomorrow. I hope all of you American citizens have voted today! For I really think that it is time to make a change.
