President Obama

"If there is anyone out there who still doubts that America is a place where all things are possible, who still wonders if the dream of our founders is alive in our time, who still questions the power of our democracy, tonight is your answer."

-- President-elect Barack Hussein Obama

In all the celebration of Obama's election tonight, I think we owe some thanks to Dubya and Palin. Without his horrendous presidency and the prospect of her even more nightmarish presidency, this leap of progressive idealism might not have been possible.
