Sure its "historical" but I dunno.. I associate tears of joy, (from women) with having a baby or getting out of a war zone alive by the skin of your teeth.
Maybe i'm a bit out of touch with the scope of peoples emotions though.

Maybe being optimistic about the next 4 years made her tear up, i dunno different things spark different emotions for people. My grandmother cried but i expected that after all that she has seen over the past 70 years in this country and all that she went through i would expect nothing less. I think Obama's rise to President is seen differently from the younger to older generations. I dont look at it really as him being black as much as say my grandmother.
Sometimes i feel my generation are a bunch pansies. Compared to what our predecessors went through we have it easy and only whine about the most innate things.
Oh well i will say this it was FREAKIN cold im so not getting out of DC tonight lol
