Yesterday there was no tomorrow…

Tonight, all of a sudden, it seems as if there may be one after all. Obama was elected President today. I watched his speech in Chicago’s Grant Park on television. It was the first time in many years that I’ve been able to watch a politician’s speech and feel nothing but hope and admiration, rather than irritation and anger.

I know there are rough times ahead; hell, we have rough times today. Bush couldn’t leave us with anything better. He never has in his life.

But now there is a light on somewhere. It will be on all night.
