Celebrations of Obama's election victory on Nov 4, 2008

November 4, 2008 will go down as one of the greatest and happiest days in American history. Little-covered a mainstream media focused on vote-counts, bloggers captured remarkable images from American cities when the public spontaneously took to the streets to celebrate Obama's victory.
