11/5/08

Few sentiments I can express that haven't been expressed already. What other synonyms are there for "elation" and "relief?" Its the opposite of when something bad happens and you keep remembering the next day, constantly flooded with sadness again and again. I keep remembering "oh yeah, this means the supreme court is saved... oh right, the wars can finally end... health care... global warming and alternative energy... and the symbolism to the world, and the inspiration to the world. No more smug Europeans, I can ask those snotty French why they haven't elected an Algerian, the Brits why no Indians or Pakistanis have been PM yet, or German folk why the German Turks haven't risen to lead their country. And far more important than that, is that our example allows all these former colonial powers can now rise to the occasion, and will competitively feel the need to. What an amazing day of hope for America, what an amazing and hopeful day for the world....
Thats all for now. Off now to lean back, smile, and not have to read polls for a few more years.
