Today is an Historic Day – A President We Can Believe In
Tuesday, November 4th, 2008Today is going to be one of those days that I remember for a long time. Probably the rest of my life. I can imagine what my parents must have felt listening to JFK talking about the Peace Corps, and the Space Race, and the Berlin Airlift... I even have to give it to Regan that for those that were interested in his message, he had a way of making a speech.
But Obama is going to change how we feel about America. He's going to change the sense that it's run by people that think they know what's good for us, when all along we fear that they're doing what's good for them. I am excited about what this will bring. The change is due. We need to have a better moral compass than Gitmo and torture - we need to understand that there are costs to living in a free society, and just because some nutcases flew planes into buildings doesn't mean we have to give up any of the liberties this country was founded upon.
I looked at Intrade this morning and at 9:43 am it's got Obama at 92.4. Excellent. I can't wait to leave early and cast my vote. I really can't.
