i didn't write about the election results yesterday because i hadn't figured out how to write about it in a way that wouldn't be a stream of conscious jumble of yahoos and weeping and phrases like "historical significance."
and i still haven't.
so i'll keep it brief. i believe the right choice was made on tuesday. barack obama has succeeded in inspiring so many, and if he can continue to do so we may have a real chance at change. nothing can get done if all we do is stand around pointing fingers and placing blame. the time has come for cooperation in the spirit of moving forward and making this country a better place for every one of its citizens. it will surely not be an easy road - but with persistence and good-will, we can get started one step at a time.
john mccain gave one hell of a classy speech on tuesday night, and hopefully all of his supporters will take his advice - we need to put the campaign behind us and stand behind the president who was chosen. this was such an electric election season; there will be many with incredible regret that their candidate did not win. but its time to move on - toward the future, toward change, toward an america that we can all be proud of - and that's something we can all do together. 8:42 AM //
