A New Day Has Come

Last night over beers, one of my friends was telling me about McCain’s request to be put in for one more mission. I’m kind of scared that he wouldn’t have made it through a quarter of the mission before bowing out and having Palin come in for her evil reign. It is indeed a memorable time in this country and I am extremely proud to be able and tell my future children that I participated in this historic election. I was extremely lucky to go to his acceptance speech for the DNC here in Denver and I couldn’t help but get kind of choked up when driving home tonight listening to his celebratory speech on the radio. Not to get all red, white, and blue, but I hope to see the US turn the corner and create a new positive direction for future generations. Things are looking bleak everywhere. Trust me, I talk to people from coast to coast on a daily basis, and for people that know me, you know what I’m talking about. I hear tons of sob stories everyday about foreclosures, repossessions, sickness, and layoffs. I don’t think this country could handle another four years of absent minded leadership and for this, I am happy the US public has spoken with such a thunderous response.
