this scares me.

as we march towards november, we face the likelihood that the american people find themselves in a parliamentary race for the democratic nominee.

meanwhile, the AP will continue to re-write its headlines and the asterisk to every story will be barack obama.

stay tuned.

p.s. yes. we. can.

1: the american people are starving for change. exit polling is showing that voters cite change over experience as their motivating factor and they do it by a two-thirds margin.

2: among progressives, liberals, and working americans there is a feeling of community and togetherness that we’ve never felt before. enough with the rhetoric of hate, let’s be done with partisan politics and let’s just come together under the candidate who is DIFFERENT.

as obama said in his speech tonight, “…WE ARE THE ONES WE’VE BEEN WAITING FOR.”

this was without a doubt the most profound comment i’ve ever heard in the history of politics.

WE ARE THE ONES WE’VE BEEN WAITING FOR.

i hope you’re enjoying history as much as I am.
