The Age of Obama
Obama will need the spirits of Kennedy, FDR and Lincoln, and also a patient public.

Obama's breathless race to the fin


I was so bummed last night. I have been very frustrated with the state that our country is in. It seems that these are the times that make or break people. It has been interesting to watch at work and my company is going through some changes that we have not experienced in the last 8 years. Financially I really am questioning its stability. I have watched friends, or at least I thought they were friends, make choices and react in ways I would have never expected. It is interesting what people do when they are really under stress. Sometimes, I guess that is when you really see what they are made of. I guess that is where loyalties are drawn. As the country continues to spiral it will be intersting to see if people bind together or pull apart. I suspect a little of both will appear.
I was thrilled to see the propositions that hold the family sacred were upheld. It was nice to see that the majority can still have a word. I was thrilled that at least it seems that the majority still has a foundation in what this country was founded on.
I spent the day watching the news profile what might be expected from the White House, as well as the House and Senate, for the next 4 years. I truly hope there will be a change. It is frightening to have them dominated by one party. It was amazing to see how charizmatic Obama is, I truly hope he has a plan and can initiate a change that will help the economy and reunite the country. We will see......... I guess at this point that is all we can do. It is hard to feel so helpless.
