Not in my area. It was really accepted in a democratic way.

Lets Go Red Sox!

Im white and I did. People in this country are still not ready to accept the fact that a black man was more intelligent, and presented a more concrete platform than his white counterpart.  I think a lot of that racism is coming from small minded conservative people who believe that somehow being a war hero qualifies a man to be president.  THe consevative right has some very strange ideas, imho, and will choose the other guy over a black man any day.  These are just my opinions.  I am looking forward to a new era where perhaps we dont see race in this country the way it was viewed in the past.  Look at how people all over the world reacted when they heard that Obama had won the election.  The overwhelming outpouring of support and pure joy was amazing, and as a white woman I was touched that the world could see how far this country has grown.  Lets hope that we continue to grow in this fashion. Peace to all.

Be Blessed.

Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity (Love), I am become as a sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.

Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vauneth not itself, is not puffed up, Doth not behave itself unseemly, seekth not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil; Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in truth; Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things. Charity never faileth.

And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is (Love) charity.  

The only backlash I have received so far, is from some of the Yeddites on this site.

Be Blessed.
