Actually, no.
I'll tell you, I'm surrounded by liberals and democrats. The people I know on the Hill are mostly democrats. Our customers seem mostly democrat. The amount of support and belief in Obama that I've witnessed over the past year is nothing short of seismic. Grown men and women crying. White men and women crying. Students and young people placing their hopes for the future in the first Black president.
I've been of voting age for twenty years and have voted in every election since. I have never seen this level of enthusiasm and belief in any candidate. Casual observers might have thought it was the Second Coming of Christ. Obama enraptured not just America, but the world.
So, for you to sit there typing away as though Obama's election was not a seismic event is just testimony that you've let your partisan politics cloud any sense of reality over what's going on in our nation and on our planet.
