25. Beware blanket statements

John Boehner cries quite a bit

[aaaaaa5a]

26. No. John Boehner whines!

There is a difference!

[awoke_in_2003]

27. Point taken...

it makes his orange run.

[Mdterp01]

2. Wow...I love that man!!!

I teared up at that one!!! Its nice to see this side of him because he's so cerebral and often been accused of not showing much of that sensitive emotion, but wow thats just so amazing and touching to see. Thank you so much for sharing that.

30. and the thing is, you KNOW it's real.

I can't think of any R who you can say that about

[Rosa Luxemburg]

3. Obama is a real

We are very grateful to Obama, a sincere person.

4. What a wonderfut talk he gave to his campaign

On the other side, Romney's campaign staff's credit cards were immediately canceld Tues night so they had to pay for their own flights home. *that* is a very visible difference between these two men.

13. What a SHIT way to treat people who have worked their asses off for you.

I would expect no less.

[DollarBillHines]

18. You've got to be kidding

Where did you hear/read that?

It sounds typically Romney, but I have a hard time believing his advisers would OK that action.

If so, that bastard will never again run for anything. No one would work for him.

29. Everything points to R$ being a piece of garbage...

Both during the campaign and after.

What a complete as$.

When I first read this, I was giving him the benefit of the doubt that this action may be something that all campaigns do—so they don't get charged huge sums of money by the ex-workers. But the article doesn't mention that, instead it goes deeper to explain what a bastard he is.

People, you don't know how lucky we are this guy lost. Whew!

Rock on, Obama!!!!!

[Delphinus]

5. Way cool!

Thanks!

[mucifer]

6. No more elections! It's gotta feel great! A few days ago he'd be trashed for crying in public.

Good for him!

That was very sweet.

[BeyondGeography]

7. He's so committed

We've never had a President like this before; if we do again, it'll be because of him.

[Cha]

8. To the Future, baby! He is so incredibly grateful as

we all are for the work of all those who helped Obama/our Country!

Look at cute little Axe and Messina there off to the side..

Thanks smorkingapple

[treestar]

9. Nice group

They applauded to give him a few seconds to recover.

[Awknid]

10. The sincerely is astounding!

I never really knew he was so very genuine. I hoped so, but was a bit skeptical. What a wonderful human!

[Spitfire of ATJ]

32. Before he won again, I posted this...

11. No one tell me that they love America more than this guy

He truly cares. That is why it comes easy for him. He believes it. He is not faking it.

[skeewee08]

12. I love you Mr. President...

[smorkingapple]

14. I'm trying to imagine the emotion he must've felt telling that full circle story.

Imagine going from a community organizer to a two term President of the United States...

Amazing...

[bigdarryl]

15. Just WOW!!!!!!!

[underpants]

16. There is NOTHING like being in an office like that - I was at the Kaine party

Granted the Kaine party was at the Richmond Marriott not some (and mean this affectionately) dinging scrappy campaign office like that. My wife and I were with the hired pros of the Kaine Richmond office who honestly treated us like one of the staff. My wife had her own password into their system. We spent hours and hours with these "kids" from California, Nebraska, Maryland, etc.

GOD WHAT A NIGHT!!!

[TBF]

17. Just got it in my email -

very nice that they shared this with all of us.

[nolabear]

19. Love it. Just love it.

[craigmatic]

21. I thought you guys were joking saying he was tearing up. He really loves the job and the people.

I'll be sorry to see him go in 2017. They say that Clinton was the only president affected by the presidential term limit but maybe Obama will be counted along with him.

[trailmonkee]

22. Wow, I really Like him talking off the cuff...

really warm..... hope we get to see lots more

[RoccoR5955]

23. This is a great inspiration

to today's youth. I hope that they cherish this moment, take it to heart, and work for a better tomorrow.

[cleduc]

24. Up against the most incredible volleys of lies, smears, attacks and massive dark money, coming

after trying to dig this country out of one of the worst holes it's ever been in, I don't think anyone is exaggerating when they describe what those people did as the greatest campaign in US history. They beat one gigantic nasty experienced organization pretty badly.

And that video helps to shine some light on why: a great leader surrounded by great people.

[BraKez2]

28. I love our President...

[BlueDemKev]

31. Wow...

...I've never seen him choke up before. Mr. President, we're SO proud of you for all that you've done. Thank you especially for health care reform. We're behind you all the way.

[cheezmaka]

33. I think "many of us" cried Tuesday night...

or not too soon after...
